Yes, it is flat but that does not matter. Your entire hand does not rest on the mouse just you fingertips. I really like the action of the accelerated scrolling with the touch interface - it hardly takes any motion at all. Right click works perfectly as you would expect and the battery lasts forever. It is really nice to be able to get multi-touch on my older macs. I think there is a way to get it working with windows but I have not tried. I bring mine everywhere with me since I generally prefer a mouse to the touchpad (even on my 15" MacPro)

If your left-click finger is resting on the left side of the mouse when right clicking it registers as a left click. Back and Forward are achievable with two-finger dragging to the left and right, but what about middle clicking?

I agree that it seems pretty magic, but at the end of the day different physical buttons are preferable to a single flat surface that affords everything; The mouse gives you no physical hints on how to use it.
