Dear Steve Jobs,

What I would really like to see is a two button mouse from Apple. I'm a long
time Mac user and have sat quietly in the corner disappointed revision after
revision. Years ago one button was sufficient, these days it is a huge
annoyance.

- Usability is important to me
- Functionality is important
- Design is also important

I'm being realistic. No one has ever been able to adequately justify the
lack of the 2nd button. Unfortunately, I have to resort to tainted third
party hardware. Help me make my system pure again and give me a two button
mouse!

Please don't let this be about petty stubbornness. The hockey-puck was a
joke. The Mighty-mouse was clever, but it still doesn't cut it (too easy to
inadvertently right click).

Here are the ideal specs:

- Gorgeous Apple design
- Left-button
- Right-button
- Center scroll wheel
- Wireless (bluetooth)
- Laser tracking
- Rechargeable
- Under $50

I understand that the Mighty-mouse may be technically superior to what I've
proposed here, but that isn't the point. If a wheel works fine round,
there's no need to try to make it square. Apple design, 2 buttons, and
relatively cheap, that's all I ask.

Sincerely,
Bluegroup

As you said, I think this issue is only a matter of stubbornness.

Haven't switched yet (my Macbook and wife's iMac should be here early next week) but this is something I've wondered why Apple would ignore. I surelt hope they address this in the near future!
