I do understand that many would protect their new beloved toys from getting all dirty and scratched up. I also personally have some experience in getting my mouse scratched. The Razer DeathAdder is a great mouse, but I’ve seen many users scratched up their mouse. I’ve even seen once a DA got so badly scratched, I thought it was used by Wolverine! Alas, no matter how careful I am when handling my beloved mouse that I use nearly every day, I still landed a scratch on it, making a bad scar, albeit tiny, on the special Razer rubber coating. Therefore I can’t really say it’s too extreme when the gang from Moshi Monde actually announce the MouseGuards for the Apple Magic Mouse.

I’m not so sure whether the Apple Magic Mouse glossy white surface can be easily scratched, but it’s a good idea to put a ‘screen protector’ onto your sexy multitouch mouse. They’re a form-fitting thin film, that not only protects the surface of the mouse from every day wear and tear abuse, but they also have a special texture that somehow provide a better grip than the Magic Mouse itself, which I surely don’t feel surprise. But for a mere $15 is all it takes to protect my mighty white mouse, I’m all for it!
