Apple Mighty Mouse

It's been a year now that I have been using Apples Mighty Mouse and overall I love it, I must say that it is the best mouse I have ever used, but every once in a while the scroll ball will only scroll in one direction. I've been super aggravated the past few days because I have not been able to scroll up. While this may not seem like a big deal, it is something I have become so accustomed to that I really can't work well without it, in this day and age who can be bothered with scroll bars.

At last, I found the solution and it is so simple I can't believe that I didn't figure it out sooner. If you press hard on the scroll ball and scroll it in all directions it will eventually start working. It only took me about 10 seconds to get mine working again! I'm assuming the ball just gets backed up with dust, etc and it simply needs to be broken loose.
