Same here. I have become addicted to gestures on my iPhone but I'm not sure
of the translation to a desk top environment.

What bothers me about this announcement is that there is no wired version.
All my keyboards and mice are wired, mainly because I hate having to swap
batteries. But my Mac Pro doesn't even have a BT interface. I would have to
add one to use the touch pad.

Send them to me. I'll pay shipping. I love the recent keyboards.

But I agree about the various mouse design failures. For a company that
really improves the user interface in most areas, Apple has problems
designing good mice. I usually go a a Microsoft mouse even though it sounds
like sacrilege.
