Hi guys,
Currently I have MBP and Magic Mouse and I will be using it with MBP.

I'm going to buy iMac and I'm deciding between Magic Trackpad and Magic Mouse.
I love the integrated Trackpad into Macbook, but when I'm going to Apple Store and try it (Magic Track Pad), it just doesn't cut it. I feels not comfortable.

What you would recommend?

Thanks

I know what you mean, If you have a magic mouse already do you really want another, I would take the trackpad and if you don't like it return it for the another mouse.

It's too personal, you must decide for yourself. I really like the trackpad. But have a mouse as well, even though I use more keyboard shortcuts than anything else.

Yes I know, but if I'm getting it at the same box as iMac, I can't really go into Apple Store and say 'I don't like it, give me Magic Mouse'. Or can I?

I know it sounds a bit weird, it's only £59/$69, but I would have other things besides that for iMac - Apple Care etc. I'm a student, so you know... There's other things to put it into.

I think you might be able to swap out the mouse/trackpad as long as it was on good condition. Might be worth checking though.

Just asked in online help can I do that, and they told as long as it's less than 14days from purchase.

I think I'm going Trackpad, just because in case I have Magic Mouse anyways incase!

Thanks for the help everyone.
