Coinciding with the introduction of the Apple Magic Mouse in October 2009, the Mighty Mouse was renamed "Apple Mouse" due to a trademark infringement lawsuit over the 'Mighty Mouse' name being awarded to Man & Machine Inc. Original product description as follows:

Meet the mouse that reinvented the wheel. The scroll wheel, that is. At a surprisingly low price, Mighty Mouse features the revolutionary Scroll Ball that lets you move anywhere inside a document, without lifting a finger. And with touch-sensitive technology concealed under the seamless top shell, you get the programmability of a four-button mouse in a single-button design. Click, roll, squeeze and scroll. This mouse just aced the maze.
