What is the best method and position to use the Magic Mouse?

To start, I am currently a PC user, and I hate it. PCs drive me nuts. I will be purchasing an Apple computer in the near future most likely a MacBook pro and will also purchase a large monitor so I can see it easier. So far, I'm very satisfied with Apple as I have an iPhone 4. I am very interested in this mouse and have several questions about this mouse.

Do I have to move my finger on the mouse to move the pointer, or is it like a regular mouse where I move the mouse and the pointer moves?

Since the entire top surface of the mouse is a touch screen if I hold the magic mouse like a regular mouse with my palm touching the back will that cause a problem?

I noticed on the MBP, if I tap with two fingers that is the equivalent of a right click, is that same in the magic mouse?

Thank you for answering my questions and I look forward to not having a PC anymore!!!

Does it work well with Mac Pros? I had problems with old mic and interference with the metal body.

I used to have a wireless Mighty Mouse and it didn't work well with my Mac Pro. It has bluetooth in it, but it always lost connection. Had to settle for a wired mouse. Been using wired for the past several years, but would like to have a wireless now.

Can I "squeeze" the mouse like the mighty mouse to view all open screens?

With the mighty mouse, i was able to squeeze the sides of the mouse and it would show me all screens that are open, allowing me to select and easily navigate. How can I get this function with the magic mouse? It was an awesome function and will be surprised if Apple took it away.

Does the mouse work with an Mac Pro that has no mouse software?

I have a MacBook Pro and want to use the magic mouse; however, I don't have any mouse software. If I buy the mouse and download, will it work?

How does this function with Final Cut Express?

I used FCE for editing and have on occasion to use my mouse for some of the functions, rather than the F keys or shortcuts...will this mouse create any functionality issues with FCE?
