What's great about it: size, portability, bluetooth connection
I'm not an Apple guy, but I find this keyboard really great. The bluetooth function makes for no cable on the desktop to get in the way. My only complaint is getting used to the size of the keyboard. The keys are full sized but I seem to put my right hand one set of keys to the right of where they should be. Once I start using it and get positioned right, typing is easy.

What's great about it: It's sleek and very sensitive
What's not so great: I still use my IMAC mouse but no complaints
I think this is fantastic, it serves two purposes. I just gotta get used to using my fingers learn the movements but in time. I play around with it and forget but once I get it all down, I am tossing the mouse....ok maybe not tossing but I will see. I wish I could use either one with Ipad

What's great about it: its pretty cool
What's not so great: have to upgrade operating system
I tried this in store and bought it because it was awesome. I was not informed that my iOS would have to be upgraded. It will not work on leopard. Returned it the next day and bought the new 27" iMac, which is super awesome, and the magic mouse that came with it is better than the trackpad.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: the design
What's not so great: sometimes it doesn't listen
My husband purchased the IMac 27 all in one with a lot of extras. I have to say my daughter (13) loves this gadget. It is cute and sci-fi ish lol. When I use I have to do it a few times to remember the taps and fingers to make it obey. Very nice though.

What's great about it: much more versatile than a regular mouse
What's not so great: starting to use it
we weren't sure if we were really going to use it, but everything was pretty spelled out for us so we figured why not. Coming from a regular pc and a lap top it was a little different at first, but we quickly got the hang of it. It allows you different options that a regular mouse doesn't allow which help get the job done much quicker. so glad we got it!

What's great about it: Can do more than a PC mouse.
What's not so great: Kinda miss the PC mouse, but don't totally regret the loss.
Have been using a PC mouse for many years, but this is like using a laptop control. This has taken some time for me to get use to, but I like what it can do.

What's great about it: It's exactly like that mouse for laptops with the gestures!!
What's not so great: It's not a gaming mouse... (To be expected, it's a laptop mousepad)
This isn't for gaming... This mouse is the exact copy of the mouse pad on laptops... So, you wouldn't use your mouse pad for a 1st person shooter, right?! Same applies here... But what's great is that you get all of the gestures that your macbook or macbook pro would have for your mac mini or powermac!! Which is really nice! Also, if you no longer want to need real estate on your desk just to move your mouse then you're really 'gonna luv' this mouse!!!

What's great about it: Very large surface area trackpad.
What's not so great: No complaints with the value of this compared to the cost!
I purchased this for use with my 2010 iMac. I figured that it will not be long before the mouse will be extinct, and I was impressed with how easy and quickly I transitioned to this trackpad. Now the wireless mouse is turned off. I also got the assembly that allows the wireless keypad and the wireless keyboard to be mounted in one unit together. It really works great that way.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Ease of use, nice looks, great gesture manipulation.
What's not so great: No faults with product I have found with my use.
With the wireless keyboard, this is a must. Easier than a mouse after you get used to it, which is pretty quick. Manipulation of trackpad gestures is excellent.
If you have both products, I ave found the Magic Wand a perfect companion, and low in price, excellent in features. Holding the KB and Trackpad together as a single unit! Being wireless allows the movement with the KB a great companion.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thinking of upgrading from a wireless mouse to the trackpad? Go for it. Its a lot more durable if you have kids, and as far as ease of use, its an easy transition.

What's great about it: Set up, ease of use
What's not so great: nothing so far.
I was looking for a change of pace and didn't want a trackball and was growing tired of my wireless mouse. One of the associates mentioned the trackpad as a good option, and I haven't looked back since.
It does take some getting used to, for task like dragging and dropping items, but once you get the hang of it, the sky is the limit.
I'd definitely recommend this item.

The magic trackpad works very much like the pad on a laptop, with more features. It just takes time to get away from the mouse./

What's not so great: I had to get used to not clicking or using right click
once you get used to using this rather than a PC pad, it is so easy. No clicking, just a soft touch and you are on your way. I like it much better than a mouse.
