No, you can use a trackpad but a mouse is alot easyer.
The mouse on a laptop is often called a mousepad, trackpad, or simply a mouse.
There are various disadvantages attached to using a trackpad on a laptop. For example, it is less efficient than a mouse.
The trackpad is better for overall use, but the magicc mouse is a tool for perfection. If you consider buying a mouse you shouldn´t get it, it`s too low profile and isn`t a good mouse for that high of a price!

Keyboard, trackpad, touchscreen, & mouse.
The issue is with the mouse behaviour in Mac OS10.7, not with Illustrator itself. I have solved the problem by turning off the mouse scrolling while in an Illustrator session.
