A Mouse with an integrated touch pad should be the next “invention” by Apple.

One advantage of the invention is that it requires no obvious button to actuate a GUI movement. Buttons break the surface of the housing and are therefore less aesthetically pleasing. For example, there is no need for a cutout in the housing of the mouse or a mechanical component to protrude out of the device. Another advantage of the invention is that the user implements the GUI movements by a simple and natural posture change of the hand and is not required to hold down a button.

More details here. I own a mighty mouse but in my opinion it’s not really the best in terms of ergonomics. It’s nice, of course, but not that comfortable. I hope this new feature will improve its overall usability and let you do things you have never thought of before.
