Apple Developing Two Button Mouse?
Appleinsider claims that Apple is "feverishly working" on a two-button wireless optical mouse to be released soon.
According to the rumor site, the reason for the departure from the single-mouse stance stems from Apple's recent foray into attracting the low-end PC market with the Mac Mini.

The earliest in our archives date back to 2002. Meanwhile, a October 2000 Wired article speculating the introduction of a two-button Apple mouse for the (then) beta Mac OS X.
