I find it to be the most comfortable mouse with the best features, so I don't really mind that its not the smallest. If all you have to carry is the mouse, the size difference really doesn't make a difference between it and a travel mouse. Splurge and get the MX5500, even if just for the mouse - its worth it.

Like the antiglare film for iPhone or the older MacBook's from Power Support... but there is another company called Photodon that makes a flim for the new macbook pro's. http://www.photodon.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=P&Product_Code=MXT-MACBP15 . I don't have it personally, so I can't really vouch for it though. Pretty sure #10 on your list will be a reality soon with a 3rd Party flim solution.

So Veronica does not do that for you? Boy and I thought you had the perfect geek life. Well I guess its still perfect enough for 99.99999+ of the single guys out there. Seriously, good list and I really enjoyed you on TWIT Sunday and weekly on the gdgt podcast. I don't want to diss the Engadget podcast, its good but they really should of retired yours and Peter's jerserys or something because they just don't seem click the way you and Peter do. re: #9.
