Introducing the innovative mouse that reinvents the wheel � the scroll wheel. Mighty Mouse features the amazing Scroll Ball that lets you move anywhere inside a document, literally without lifting a finger. And with touch-sensitive technology concealed under the seamless top shell, you can choose either the versatility of a four-button mouse or the simplicity of a single-button beauty.
innovative, indeed

why do they always hide, just when you want to change channel?

The act of changing channels causes them pain, and brings their batteries that step closer to death
