Belkin keyboard / mouse extender - 4.5 m

Advantages: Very versatile, handy, and easy to use
Disadvantages: A bit more expensive than some other "cheaper" hubs

...The Belkin USB BusStation is an extremely easy way to expand your USB ports / serial / com / ps2 / Ethernet ports. The basic package comes as a 4 bay stackable system, with one base 4 port USB hub, and 3 other 1 port USB hubs. All are removable and can be exhanged for other Belkin hub products. This means total diversity. You could, for example, have 4 x 4 port USB hubs (a 16 port USB hub in total). The BusStation has it's own power supply, providing a true 500 mA per port current, with an overload protection system on each port. Currently, Belkin are giving a £5 rebate back if you send off the barcode on the bottom (or a £10 rebate if you send off the barcodes from a BusStation and one other Belkin hub product).

Advantages: Easy to install
Disadvantages: Crashes my machine!

...I bought the Belkin range of products so I could setup a wi-fi network at home. I have the Belkin 54g Router and also have a Belkin 11g card in my desktop at home, so with this set-up successfully I bought the 54g notebook card for my laptop. All were fairly easy to setup but I imagine it could be tricky if you have no networking knowledge. So all installed and ready to go. My laptop has never been the same since. I manage to work for between 10 - 60 mins then it's crash time, computer screen just freezes! This happens around 5 - 10 times a day something that never happened prior to the installation of this card. So technical support i thought, wrong! After waiting for around 45 mins on the dedicated support line I ended up putting the phone down. Email them. So i emailed them with my problem. Around 4 days later I get... Read review

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

...the Belkin Wireless Keyboard and Mouse you need to be using a PC (not Mac compatible) and packing Windows 98 or newer. Belking have given the keyboard keys a nice resistance so that typing is comfortable and quick, exactly what you want from a keyboard. The mouse is accurate, something you need to be careful of when buying a wireless mouse as inaccuracy or lagging can seriously deflate a mouse's appeal. The mouse has 3 buttons and a scroll wheel which, let's face it, is pretty much all you ever actually want to use on your mouse. It's coloured a lovely two tone silver and black. In all the set weighs roughly 4 pounds which isn't bad at all for a keyboard, a mouse and a receiver so it should comfortably sit on your knee if you've had enough of sitting on your desk. As I mentioned towards the beginning of this review, what really sets... Read review
