Just saw this review of MagicPrefs on Macworld (http://www.macworld.com/reviews/product/464240/review/magicprefs_182.html?expand=true)!

Adds boatloads of touch functionality to the Magic Mouse through a System Preferences pane. From the website:

It features the ability to bind a variable number of finger clicks, taps, swipes, pinch and other gestures to functions like Middle Click , Hold Down Both Mouse Buttons , Spaces , Expose, Dashboard etc.

Looks pretty good and best of all, it's free! Get it here (http://magicprefs.com/)!

Tom (:macwave:... I got mine!)

I paid £5 when I got mine for a program called "Magic Touch" to add the 'squeeze' function to it. Rather than squeezing you press with two fingers to launch exposé. It was made only 2-3 days after the magic mouse was made so I'll be willing to bet the functionality of your program is much greater :yes: PLUS! it's free! Going to download now :yes:

Going to download now :yes:

Lemme know how it works Josh. I'm not at my Mac today so I can't try it out.

Yet... :brightidea:

Tom (:macwave:... patiently waits!)

Ok... :yes:

I've loaded it on my MacBook Pro now and am now configuring it.

Only problem now is... there's soooooo many possibilities! Swipes, taps, clicks, drags. All with one, two or three fingers. Staggering! :mental:

It's gonna take a day or two to sort this all out.

Tom (:macwave:... overwhelmed!)
