It was nothing to do with the way it worked - it was so uncomfortable to use and hurt my hand after a few hours use.

Luckily it was in the first week it was available so i made a profit by selling it on eBay

personally i find this mouse HIGHLY ergonomic - beats the IBM mice that i use at work everyday by a LONG shot. all depends.

Since I got rid of my desk my setup consists of my Macbook and the floor (and the best kind of dogs known to man), or good old standing up :cool:
Ye it's really not comfortable...lol

And before anyone suggests it...sitting on the bed is a no-no. Far too much OCD where that's concerned.

It looks lovely. Perhaps a large floor pillow will increase the comfort level of floor computing. I have some Magis dogs as well.

Dorm room setup at UT.

Not the best photo, just took it quickly with my iPhone 4.

Weird. I think the Magic Mouse is VERY comfortable to use. Nothing replaced My MX Revolution until the Magic Mouse came along.

I haven't used one for long enough periods of time, or in a proper position to know if I like it or not. However, I do love my BT mighty mouse (and it seems that I am one of the few who do)
 
Just got this set up, still need to refine it a little... and need to figure out what to do with all the cables... :eek:

The maxtor brick kills it for me in the other one.

Cables on the table beats having everything by the edges so that the wires aren't 'visible' hahha
 
Updated, new Magic Trackpad. I'm liking it a lot more than the Magic Mouse so far. Sorry about the picture quality, took it with my 3GS.

incredible setup. so the MagicPad has completely replaced your need for a mouse?! when you leave the cursor, say, towards the bottom right hand corner, and put your finger up the top left hand corner, will the mouse jump straight there? or does it mirror the use of an actual trackpad?

also, that cinema display looks mighty square :(

loving the setup though :)

Thanks! So far it has completely replaced my magic mouse it's easier to use and it even feels more comfortable than the mouse and the trackpad on my Macbook. As far as I can tell it mirrors the trackpad on the Macbook but I can check that for you when I get home from work. I have the track speed turned up all the way and I can get across the 24" screen without going all the way across the Trackpad.

I think that's from the camera angle, the ACD is definitely not square at all.
