I Hacked the Magic Mouse

There are thousands of mice available on the market, and almost all of them can be used on a Mac. It's strange that anyone bothers to fix any mouse. Just buy a mouse that fits your requirements.

What if one of my requirements is that the top of the mouse supports multi touch gestures?

I’m not saying he shouldn’t do it, I’m just saying it’s strange.

Magic Mouse was designed to be held with two fingers and moved with the wrist.

Personally I would never buy a product completely, diametrically different from what I need and then adapt it. But I guess some people like the challenge and I have no problem with that.

Hacker News: No hacking allowed!

I thought it was cool anyway haha. I'll likely never do it myself but if anything similar ever comes up this is now locked and loaded in the noggin

Let people hack!

Few, if any, other mice are touchpads. The Magic Mouse is more of a touchpad that happens to be capable of being used as a mouse.
