As Jybler pointed out, pigs are flying today: Apple releases a multibutton mouse! It seems to have an integrated 2-D touchpad or something instead of a scroll wheel? The only downside is that, instead of the 2 side buttons that my Microsoft Optical Mouse has, it has one "squeeze" function, so it's essentially got one less button. The 2-D scroll thingy is pretty different. I guess they're Apple, so they've gotta do something new. :) I'm still not sure how it works.

I was at the Palo Alto Apple store yesterday and they had a Mighty Mouse on display (none for sale yet). At first, the 2-D scroll ball felt awkward, but after a while and after changing tracking speed to medium, it felt pretty good and surprisingly usable.
But I'm holding out until Apple releases a BT version.
