[iBook] 512mb iBook

[Samantha Cornell]

Jeff,

Unfortunately, I'm not all that familiar with the mouses (mice?)...I'm 
really a trackpad/apple mouse aficionado myself, and have personally 
seen no need for extra bells and whistles.  I do know that many people 
enjoy them though, and I assume that there is some degree of merit to 
this.

That said, I'm not exactly sure which logitech mouse was 
bluetooth...but I'm not positive. Of course, then you may need to 
consider batteries.

Check here for more might mouse info, or google "apple mighty mouse 
review"

Also, consider the fact that knowing Apple, they will release a new 
version (maybe BT?) before long.

Enjoy the new iBook!

Samantha
