It's like coming out with an awesome new multitouch mouse, and then letting users have absolutely no customization. Side note btw, the sensitivity on the magic mouse is soooooo shitty. It's probably the least sensitive mouse i've ever laid hands on. Even the highest setting is nerv-rackingly slow for me...]]>Dec 4th 2009 12:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verizon-ad-confirms-droid-is-a-not-quite-pretty-racehorse-duct/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/verizon-ad-confirms-droid-is-a-not-quite-pretty-racehorse-duct/
