Advantages: Comfortable for a normal layout keyboard, silent
Disadvantages: Required software installation to work under Windows XP

I have recently bought the Logitech Wave cordless set, and I can say it's a big leap forwards for qwerty keyboards in terms of comfort and functionality. It's a comfortable keyboard for those who do not want to take the time to learn a new layout. Frankly, I was about to buy a true ergonomic keyboard, one of those with seemingly weird layouts, since this one doesn't look all that different from normal keyboards, but the media keys won me over, ...
...the average user. The provided Logitech application lets you configure pretty much everything about how keys behave. You can use them to launch applications, to activate Vista functions, to open documents, websites... For instance, since I own XP, I set the Vista 'Flip3d' key to open Eclipse, a programming application, so that I can instantly code, whenever I feel like it. It's very convenient. The 'F' keys have icons printed on them, and this ... Read review

Advantages: Works well, looks nice and is small and compact
Disadvantages: Can interfere with other wireless keyboards/mouse nearby.

I bought this wireless keyboard/mouse set when I got my laptop back in March 2008. I wanted to spare my laptop keys and mousepad as much as I could so this seemed like the best option. I haven't really have any worries with it apart from times when my boyfriend is using his microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse next to mine for his laptop and they can sometimes interfere with eachother. It's not that noticable though so it is only a small issue ...
...keys, nice and paddy to the touch. Easy to type with and looks good too, being black and sleek. It hasn't got unnecessary bulk around it which I noticed that quite a few others have, so it is good for tucking away when it's not in use or for transporting, I have taking it out with me and my laptop with ease before. The mouse again is black, easy to use and has a nice rubbery-like scroll button in the middle which is also splendid to use. It is a ... Read review

Advantages: High quality, long battery, bluetooth connectivity so no dongle required
Disadvantages: Not all features worked on Linux immediately (horizontal scrolling and about quarter of media keys)

This is a rather bespoke review. I bought this keyboard to use on my PS3, along with the Linux(Ubuntu) installation, as it was one of the few bluetooth keyboards I found. I am happy to say that the keyboard paired with my PS3 easily, so I do not need to use the USB dongle, it connected to Linux easily as well, need to follow some short instructions though, (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-setup-bluetooth-keyboard-and-mouse-in-ubun tu.html). On ...
...keyboard (without using dongle), then worked brilliant. Track pad can also be used to navigate the menus as well as the arrow keys. Only issue, is sometimes when playing Resistance online, when trying to type a message, the keyboard becomes unresponsive and you can't type any messages (I assume this is a software problem, not the actual keyboard). Took me about 5 minutes to get it connected in Ubuntu (without using dongle). Once connected though, ... Read review

Advantages: looks nice, nice key features, mouse is accurate
Disadvantages: poor receiver, goes out of sync, bad keyboard layout

A disappointing set by Microsoft. I bought tis set to complement my new computer and to replace my previous Logitech wireless keyboard. I wish I hadn't. The keyboard looks great and has a load of useful features but its negative points frustrate each time its used. Firstly, the features of the keyboard such as hot keys, volume, gadget buttons, instant calculator and lock options are great and look and work really well. The mouse is responsive and ...
...keyboard. As mentioned, it does look like a really good combo and the features support that so if that is what is important then you'll be happy. However, the bad points out number the good points. The receiver on the desktop has two problems, one is that it is highly sensitive to th state of the batteries in the keyboard and mouse. If your battery starts to lose power you will notice less accuracy when typing. Also you need the keyboard to be ... Read review

Advantages: Classy, Sturdy, Practical, Innovative and A bargain
Disadvantages: You have to turn the mouse on and off (this takes a second)

Hi All This set is one of the best I've ever had, and this is why: 1) Stylish - It is thin, sleek and the colours go well. The black and silver look very stylish especially with a black monitor. 2) Cheap - I picked this up at Currys digital for £29.99 well worth it in my view. 3) Wireless - Very flexible, immaculate performance in DVDs. (For when your brother really needs a pee!) Just pause it with the handy media buttons on the right hand side. ...
...choose which one) Play/Pause Stop Next Scene/Song Previous Scene/Song Shuffle Volume up and down Mute On the left hand side there is other buttons like: Standby (Takes your Computer into Standby mode) Home (This can open any program although I like it set as firefox) Rotate (This works in Windows picture and fax viewer, and can be set to left or right) Zoom in and out (Text and image on web browser, works with Internet Explorer or Firefox) ...
