Can the preferences be set so that the available gestures match those on the current MacBook Pro track pad?

I recently purchased a MacBook Pro and enjoy the gestures available on the track pad. The Magic Mouse looks like a great accessory, but I'm sure it would be frustrating going back and forth between the track pad and mouse if the gestures and very different between the two. Hopefully the preference settings can be used to make them very similar.

in settings, can you change scrolling from 1 finger to 2 finger?

I have a macbook pro and i am used to scrolling with 2 fingers, and i want to know if the settings can be changed for the magic mouse because 1 finger scrolling would probably confuse me.

Can i show all open windows like the four finger swipe on my track pad?

On the MacBook track pad when i swipe downwards with all 4 fingers it shows me every window open at the moment. Is there a way to do the same thing with my new Majic Mouse?

How much more power drain does the Magic Mouse cause to a MacBook Pro compared to a wired mouse?

In a few months I'll be purchasing a MacBook Pro. I'll be setting it up as a desktop with an external HP monitor, an Apple Magic Mouse, an Apple wireless keyboard and a mini Displayport to DVI adaptor. But I'll also use it as laptop sometimes. And I'll probably bring it to school occasionally. I really don't like trackpads very much; I tend to prefer a mouse. So,when i bring it to school I'd like to use the Apple Magic Mouse so I don't need to use the trackpad. I would like to know how much more power using the Magic Mouse would draw from the MacBook Pro compared to a wired mouse. I'd also like to know how long the Macbook Pro's battery would last when I'm using the Magic Mouse with it . I'm asking these questions because the Apple Magic Mouse uses Bluetooth and I know that Bluetooth uses a lot of power.

Can the Magic Mouse track without the need of a mat on a wooden desk?

I have a wired Mighty Mouse (which is an Optical Mouse) and I have to use a mousemat in order to use this mouse on my wooden desk. Can the Magic Mouse track on a wooden desk? A mousemat is too big to fit on the keyboard shelf when I slide the shelf away, so being able to do away with the mat would be great!

Thanks. :)
