Apple’s Magic Trackpad is for people who are bored with the mouse

Seems like there’s a market for a huge trackpad for iMac users who thinks that the touchpad on the Macbook is a bit magical and wants it for their desktop as well. Wireless keyboard and mouse is perfectly understandable but a wireless trackpad?

The Magic Trackpad ($69) is Apple’s latest wireless peripheral (via Bluetooth) which is basically a bigger Macbook Pro touchpad that supports a whole lot of gestures. Click, scroll, rotate, swipe, pinch, tap and gestures using up to four-fingers!

If the magic mouse is too simple for your taste then replace it with the Magic Trackpad instead.

Personally, I think this is one Apple product that will gather dust in store shelves here in our country if it ever makes its way here. They should’ve develop their own pen tablet instead. What do you think?

  1. I think that as Apple continues building on more multitouch functionality to their desktop OS a trackpad can actually become more useful than a mouse.

    • Really? Hmmm, Every time I use a laptop I always want to use a mouse instead of the touchpad. Think PC makers will follow suit with this accessory?
