One thing I like about the mighty mouse is the deceptively high # of buttons on it. I like being able to launch expose, spaces and such from my mouse. They are preaching a lot about how customizable the magic mouse is, but I'd like to confirm it can do both those things before buying one.
None at market mall yet - I went to check even though the slightly clueless sounding girl on the phone said they didn't have any new mice. I just went ahead and ordered mine. I'm going to assume though that the side buttons are gone - there's a video on the Apple site and I don't think it makes any mention of them that I recall.

I'm just excited about the flick scrolling and the 360 degree scrolling without the ball in the mighty mouse gumming up. I too thought the mighty mouse was decent other than the gumming up, which drove me nuts.

The new glass trackpads are so good you really don't need a mouse, but I find its still nice to have one as a change every so often to help reduce the risk of RSI. Laptop/guitar/PS3/porn is putting a terrible workload on my wrists.
