I was thinking the same thing. I've tried the Magic Mouse, Logitech Anywhere, and Logitech Marathon all to no avail. I returned them all eventually and now I'm back to the trackpad.
Just from anecdotal evidence from someone who can detect the lag with 3 different mice, it's not there with the trackpad.
Honestly, I'm not convinced that lag is the problem more so than acceleration. I've never been able to disable acceleration since Tiger, so I don't have that information. Since it's quite reasonable to have acceleration with a trackpad, I've never had any problem with Mac trackpads.
I've perused the site and understand the functionality but don't see where such high demand is coming from. A few people are commenting here that they use it to send SMS, which makes sense, but I'm having trouble conceptualizing large use cases besides text/call user for confirmation of some action or sending a large alert to many users.
My mental summary keeps coming back to "push notifications without an app installed and to any phone". (I'm not implying that's insignificant.) Is that off base?
Its phone infrastructure in the cloud, which provides dead-simple server-side integration. They provide the telephone infrastructure, so you can focus on your application. This might include IVR style applications, SMS, voice mail, etc.
If you use Rails, try out @stevegraham's twilio-rb gem.
It's difficult to enter the world of telecom IVR, the barrier of entry is very high, and to do anything at a large scale requires a large up-front investment.
Twilio makes telecom IVR as simple as writing a web application, and they're very affordable with no up-front costs.
I've written custom emergency notification systems, call-in contests, intelligent call forwarding systems (you could replicate Google Voice). Any phone app you can think of can be constructed.
Twillio is great for getting a small app out the door. But if you need to scale it and get any advanced form of call control it doesn't support it. It also is a lot more difficult to move away from it if you need to scale out and use other systems. With Tropo you can integrate it with Adhearsion and then as you need to scale move it to Rayo or Asterisk......and you also are not limited to the currently supported countries with Either offering. Tropo allows you to set up your own endpoint in a country they don't support and will integrate that in. So if you are in a South American country, or any place that Twillio doesn't support it is the only game in town.
This could be great news.
