Do you find it easier to navigate Logos4 on a MacBook Pro with a Magic Mouse or the built in pad?
thanks
I have both, but prefer the built-in track pad.
Answer depends on personal preference; what feels good to you (different hands have different sizes and tactile feel in various fingers). Magic Mouse, Magic TrackPad, and built-in pad all support multi-finger movements. Thankful can use variety of USB devices with Mac.

Steve -
Apple now sells a "Magic Trackpad," which essentially adds this to their desktop line. To be honest, the "Magic Mouse" is a great mouse, but I would love to have the Trackpad, especially when I upgrade to Lion. So many of the new features are "swipe" enabled, and I think these features would be easier on the pad. So.... Stick with what you've got. You'll get used to it soon enough. [:)]

Logos have yet to catch up with both the Magic Mouse and the Trackpad way of doing things especially when in paged modes. Great confusion and a deal of unpridictability comes when Vertical gestures make Horizontal animations. This is compounded by the uncontrollable progress of the movement in the books.
Logos has a great product but it is a long long way from being a mac product of old and hence there is a problem with moving with the times.
I have a magic mouse and Lion. I use the magic mouse at work because I use an external monitor display and keep my laptop shut, so it's my only option. But, it's a great option. You can still do many of the things you can with the trackpad, although it's a little different because you're limited to two-fingers instead of four. So, for instance, in Safari when you do a two-finger swipe on the trackpad to navigate your history, you do the same with a one-finger swipe on top of the magic mouse. In Lion when you do a three-finger swipe to go between desktops, you do so with a two-finger swipe on the magic mouse. The only thing that is missing is the four-finger up/down swipe actions, and the four-finger pinch for the launchpad. I get around the up/down swipes with hotspot corners, and have to simply click the dock icon to open launchpad. Also, you can double-tap with two fingers to open mission control.
Not sure how that helps you with Logos, though. In Logos pretty much the only swiping function that I'm aware of is the scrolling, which is accomplished by a one-finger swipe up/down on top of the magic mouse.
correction: I use a hotspot corner for the launchpad too.
