You can left, middle, and right click on a Mighty Mouse. It does only have 1 "button" however. I think it uses technology similar to the touchpads on the laptops to do the clicks (I think its proximity based...click on the left of the mouse, its a left click, etc).

It does not support "multitouch" in the sense that you cant have your index finger touching the mouse and click with your middle finger and have it register as a right click. It took me all of 10 seconds to get right clicks working 100% of the time.
Basically correct. The Mighty Mouse is a touch sensitive surface, thus you must raise your left click finger in order to right click. Some people adapt to this quickly. I do not and don't like them =

Try one at a local Apple Store, easiest way to make the decision.

Yea, I pulled mine out of the box for my iMac, for the first time, and I have to say that I actually like it. I really like the Scroll Wheel, and I can almost do without the "Side Clicks" as it's a bit cumbersome for my hand. The right and left click isn't hard to do at all though.

Thanks for the heads up! This thing gives me the flexibility that I love so much with my MBP Trackpad in a mouse! :D Hooray!
