Apple Magic Trackpad Gets Official Price, Released Today

July 27th, 2010 by: Paul Strauss


Remember that Apple trackpad we thought was coming a few weeks back? Well we were right with our intelligence on the hardware, just wrong on the date. The good news is that the hardware is real, and you can buy it right now.

The new Magic Trackpad works wirelessly with your desktop Mac via Bluetooth, adding multitouch gestures for interacting with objects on screen, scrolling through long web pages, flipping pages in electronic books, and more.

The trackpad is about the same height as the Mac aluminum keyboards, making it 80 percent larger than trackpads on MacBook Pros, and giving you plenty of real-estate for multiple fingers.

You can get your hands on the Magic Trackpad over at the Apple Store today for $69 (USD).

      I doubt it – I don’t think you can use a stylus with it (assuming it’s capacitive touch). I ordered one for myself, so I’ll let you know when it arrives.
