Belkin ErgoMouse mouse

Advantages: wireless
Disadvantages: doesnt work properlly

...i bought this off my local asian retailer and have had nothing but problems with it from day 1!!! the mouse goes dead all the time which requires you to take out and replace the batteries to reactivate, which is a pain especially as i play a lot of poker online. the keyboard is just as bad in that it constantly misses letters out when typing, meaning you have to manually go back over your work and correct these mistakes. i tried replacing batteries almost daily to see if this is where the problems lay but still found the same problems. i may just have been unlucky and bought a faulty device but it is only 2 months old and my advice would be to avoid buying this in the first place. a total waste of both time and money! 1/10....

Advantages: It's one of best game controllers I've found
Disadvantages: Not for people who hop from one game to another

...difference. This, with a mouse, is the best input device for gaming that I've found - certainly for RPG's and 1st Person shooters. If you're considering buying this, then look seriously at the Saitek alternative before doing so. In my opinion, it looks much better.

However, although the Saitek software makes for much, much better programming - it does everything the Belkin software does, and much more - I've had a problem which I suspect is a conflict with my Saitek joystick (x52), resulting in frequent system crashes.

Advantages: Smooth Keystrokes, Very cheap for wireless
Disadvantages: Weird Key Layout

...The very first thing you're going to notice about the Belkin Wireless Keyboard And Mouse is the price. It is cheap. Very cheap. It's also quite a nice design, with an all black finish that looks both sleek and sexy. Setup couldn't be much easier, as the Autosync feature automtically detects the keyboard and the mouse so it won't be long before you're batting away at your new combo trying to find the problem with it. Surely it can't be that cheap, and actually work can it? Belkin have created a Wireless system which uses 256 IDs and means that there should be no interference whatsoever over a good range but unfortunately it's only PS2 compatible, so if you're wanting USB you'll need to look elsewhere. At the top of the black finish keyboard is located 8 Multimedia and Internet keys including volume remote. In order to use... Read review
