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!!!

Is it made out of the same surface as the Mighty Mouse? The mighty mouse didn't move very fluently .

I owned the mighty mouse, and I was disappointed on how well it moved on my mouse pad surface. My mouse pad is a professional gaming mousepad (which I no longer use for gaming). I was just wondering if it moves any better around the mousepad?

does this mean that the new mouse has similar capabilities of a pen and tablet when using design or illustration software?

Could one use fingers on the mouse to move cursor input points, click and drag selection and generally mimic some of the functionality of a pen and tablet input device?

That would be very useful if one could simply keep looking at the screen and select or move input selections, as well as manipulation of items and objects with the magic Mouse.

How good is the magic mouse's latency?

Every bluetooth mouse I have used in the past (both on OS X and Windows) had an annoyingly long latency. In other words, there's a small (but noticeable) delay between moving your mouse and seeing the cursor move, which gives the feeling that the cursor is struggling to keep up. I am wondering how good this mouse is in this respect.
