Default Will MS Bluetooth Intellimouse work on a Mac?

Thinking of getting this mouse as I can't get used to the single button (non scroll-wheel) mouse on my new iMac.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...888213-1314239

Will it work on a Mac? In the technical spec it says Windows XP but doesn't mention Mac OS at all.

I've got the bluetooth adaptor built in to my iMac, and i know it can detect 3rd party devices. Anyone used one of these before?

Cheers

I use a non BT intellimouse and I know MS support of OSX is generally very good, so I would guess, yes it will be fine.

I used to have a Logitech BT mouse and keyboard on my iMac, but it would never wake up after the iMac had been to sleep and I had to plug a USB mouse in each time to kick the BT into action. As a result I've gone back to the original Apple mouse and keyboard

If anyone knows how to fix this, I'd love to know
