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. :)

Can I use the old bluetooth mouse on a Mac Mini after upgrading to the Magic Mouse?

I have a Mac Mini I bought in July. I use the bluetooth mouse and bluetooth keyboard very successfully. Can I use both the old and the new Magic Mouse concurrently after upgrading Snow Leopard to run the Magic Mouse? I might want to keep the old mouse in use since I bounce between two monitors and I could leave the old mouse at my desk while using the Magic Mouse in front of my 37" Vizio TV.

Does magic mouse have an opening underneath for the laser or is it sealed?

Does magic mouse have an opening underneath for the laser or is it sealed (lens or cover)? I have a logitech laser mouse where there is an open hole beneath to permit the laser to shine out, but the problem is that dog hair is constantly getting inside that hole, such that I have to pick it out with tweezers a few times a week. Each time a hair gets in there the mouse starts acting crazy, and when several hairs get in there its impossible to use the mouse at all.

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!!!
