Apple seems to like to make things difficult to service when you need to. I'm
sure that built-in battery can't be easily replaced. It's probably a
rechargeable battery, but what happens when it stops holding a charge? Apple
probably expects you to take it to an Apple service specialist who charges a
lot to replace the battery, or just replace the mouse.
Personally I still prefer a mouse with a cable so that I don't have to worry
about replacing its batteries. Usually I don't sit so far away from the
computer that I wished I had a wireless mouse/keyboard. I think the only real
scenario where a wireless mouse & keyboard are useful is with a smart TV, where
you'd sit far enough back from it that you wouldn't want a cable between you
and the TV.
It reminds me of some car stereos I've seen that have a remote control..
What's the use of a remote control when the car stereo is right in front of
you? Perhaps for passengers in the back seat?
