It has to:

be bluetooth capable
be full size or close to full sized
has to have two buttons and a scroll wheel
must be an optical mouse, im going to use it on a variety of surfaces

Just recommend me the cheapest one. Thanks in advance. And if this is in the wrong forum feel free to move it.

There is The Mouse BT by DV Forge. I have the regular corded mouse they make. I like it very much, plus it does 'match' the Mac! :)
I have never used the BT version, but if it is anything like the regular one, it should be good!

Kensington makes some of the best trackballs around so I'd assume their mouse product is good.

I'm looking for one too, but I'm just wondering, why are all of them so expensive? Are there any under $70?

Bluetooth is more expensive than RF or USB

Sorry for my amateur question, but what's RF?

You plug in a USB receiver and the mouse connects wirelessly to that. it is Radio Frequency

Does it work good, and does it interfere with bluetooth or any other devices in any way?

No it shouldn't interfere with bluetooth, but you will have an extra dongle sticking out of the USB port...

I'd go for Radtechs new mouse (google it), seems to fit your requirements...

I'm probably going to try this one:

Looks quite cool and fits all my requirements:
-on/off switch
-charging station (I hate charging batteries)
-almost full-sized but still compact
-2 buttons & scroll wheel (a thumb button would be nice but you can't have everything I suppose)
