In all, at the $69 price tag it's difficult to call something like this a must-have -- it's a niche product for a niche user.

If you're a Mac user who's more comfortable using a trackpad than a mouse, get yourself to your local Apple store and pick up the Magic Trackpad.

If you don't mind the Apple's styling price premium over Wacom's plastic black slate, and don't care about where your trackpad is located, you will be happy with this one. But if you are looking for the laptop experience on your desktop computer, pass.

If you have $70 burning a hole in your pocket, you love Apple's aesthetic designs, and you can't live without multitouch gestures on your Mac desktop, it could be a nice thing to have—kind of like the treadmill in your living room that is destined for a life as a clothes hanger...

Apple's Magic Trackpad offers all the functionality of a MacBook clickpad in a standalone Bluetooth device. For most people, however, it's not worth the pricey upgrade over an existing mouse.

As it stands, though, the Apple Magic Trackpad is a strong addition to the company’s concise portfolio of branded peripherals... Unless you’re dead-set on using a mouse, I wholeheartedly recommend the Magic Trackpad, hence giving it two-thumbs up.

Bought this product as a trial to see if I like the new trackpad style (no button) over what my old MacBook pro had for everyday use. Once I got over the learning curve I could not use any other mouse. I use it 5 days a week for 6-8 hours a day at work! Amazing product!!

Multitouch worked very well, very nice feel to the surface. It wasn't as comfortable to me to use for an extended period than a nice Logitech ergonomic mouse. I also had a hard time with the secondary click, it was not reliable for me. Sometimes it would right click, sometimes left click. I...

I have owned the Magic Trackpad for a few weeks now and over time it is gradually creeping more and more into my workflow. I use it alongside the Magic Mouse (which I also love) and the longer it has been sat on my desk the more I find myself using it each day. For web browsing, flicking through...

I purchased the Magic Trackpad to provide a Bluetooth-based pointer device for my new Mac Mini setup. It seems to be designed exactly for this scenario - as I am running the Mini through my HDTV and using it primarily for media payback and casual web browsing. It is paired with the Mac Wireless...
