Mouse: Cursor not aligned with click area

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

The problem occure in every app as far as I can tell.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Click on the area that the cursor is pointing at. Insead the area clicked is in 
the lower part of the cursor or even further away from the tip.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
BTstack Mouse 1.0-25562 on iPad iOs 4.2.1

Please provide any additional information below.
The tip of the mouse cursor is not the place where You click. Usialy it is the 
lower part of the cursor and sometimes it is slightly to the left of the 
cursor. 
I'm not sure but I guess that the click area shifts from time to time.
If I'm not the only one experiencing this issue and there are some tehnological 
bariers wit alignement maybe it wuld be better to change the coursor to some 
kind of big dot?

I am also experiencing this problem when the orientation is not in default 
portrait with the home button at the bottom.

It appears most evident when I put the iPad in reverse-portrait with the home 
button at the top, and the actual click appears to be at the bottom right 
portion of the cursor icon.

O'm experiencing this issue with 4.2.6 on Verizon iPhone, but the click isn't 
even hitting the cursor area.  It's further down making clicks at the top of 
the screen impossible.  I'm using this with SBRotate which emulates the iPad's 
landscape mode, but even in the native landscape capable apps it doesn't work 
correctly.

@ethan can you try without SBRotator being installed? Does it make a difference?

 It's for any application that is able to go into landscape mode(normally or with SBRotate installed).  So, after uninstalling it I ran some tests in Portrait(works correctly and clicks actual mouse point).  Once you've switched to Landscape in Safari, Jump Desktop, etc. it will then permanently throw off the cursor click location to the bottom left of the arrow head(slightly below the left point).  From this point on it will use that incorrect location on both Portrait and Landscape.

I've attached a screenshot from Jump Desktop so you can use the remote mouse 
cursor as a reference to the offset location it's moving the x/y click to.

The issue is with the cursor graphic rotating (once the screen has rotated) to 
face the correct direction.  The click point specified in Portrait mode is in 
the exact location as it was, only the cursor has turned sideways.  

So, the cursor graphic is dynamic for all viewing modes but the click point is 
static to Portrait.

Same issue seen here on my iPad2 4.3.3 running latest version of btstack mouse. 

Hope this gets fixed as at times it gets irritating specially when you're 
working with Spreadsheets

I'm having the same issue with iPad1 4.3.3 running latest version.  I hope I 
don't 'get used to it' before it's fixed

MouseSupport update r203 fixes touch simulation inside of apps in 4.2+. The 
pointer now really points to the click point. It's out on Cydia.
