Well it took apple 20 years to make a mouse with 2 buttons. I wouldn't be suprised. However thats what its going to be like in the future, voice recognition and touch screen. Wait when windows 7 (blackcombe or vienna) to come out

I recently saw an exhibit with this kind of stuff at the Minnesota Science Museum, it's pretty cool stuff. Saw a vid of a guy typing and moving a mouse around via a chip (BrainGate) implanted in his brain. Cool stuff.
