Genius Wireless USB Keyboard and Optical Mouse

Advantages: Wireless, Relativly cheap, Durable, Initially get rechargeable batteries
Disadvantages: Need to eventually buy new batteries, Problems with low power.

...essential in all modern mice. It has an optical laser so can be used on any surface. Both the keyboard and the mouse are wireless and their signal is picked up by a smart receiver come battery charger. The feature of being wireless is great for people who use spaces for multiple purposes such as a written work/study area as well as for using a PC. It plugs into a standard USB A slot. The box comes with 6 rechargeable AA batteries, user manual and a driver CD. The rechargeable batteries are a great addition to the pack however I found after a few months of use they did not hold the charge as well and did not last. This means eventually you will be using regular batteries which is obviously more expensive than using wired keyboard and mouse equivalents. When the battery power in either the mouse or keyboard gets low it can lead to...

Review of Genius Wireless TwinTouch+ Optical Value - keyboard , mouse

Microsoft wireless mouse & keyboard

Advantages: looks smart, easy to install & use, responsive
Disadvantages: batteries wear out quickly

...I purchased this wireless mouse and keyboard set when I got a new computer as I thought it would look smarter and more modern than the wire mouse and keyboard that came with it. I chose this set as I felt that Microsoft had a good reputation and, at £30, this represented good value for money. This was easy to connect up with the computer, just a simple plug in to the front of the box. That was all that was required to install. The mouse and keyboard each take two batteries. I find that the batteries wear down really quickly. This is frustrating, especially when typing where letters can be missed out in your work, or quite often, the space bar won't function. The batteries in the mouse wear out especially quickly. Having said that, this is the only flaw I can find with the product. The keyboard is comfortable to type...

Review of Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 2000 - keyboard , mouse

Microsoft Optical Desktop Elite Keyboard!

Advantages: Can move around and stil type - even on the sofa, no wires
Disadvantages: Expensive for a keyboard & mouse, also overall a bit chunky

...COST: £69.99 PLACE OF PURCHASE: Comet BRAND: Mircosoft For a super special birthday gift my parents decided not to get me a new computer, or even a shiny new laptop. No, they decided to get me a keyboard and mouse set. Great you might say. Not so if you don't have a computer, however fortunately I do so it wasn't a disapointment when I opened the box. At first I thought 'thanks.....' but when I read the box I got really excited. In the package you get, all wrapped up in clear plastic and white packing foam, one very posh looking black Microsoft wireless optical desktop elite keyboard , and one optical wireless mouse to go with it. The mouse features a scrolling tool which is fantastic as allows me to scan down pages on the web super fast - and is a neat feature my previous plug in mouse lacked. The keyboard itself is black...

Review of Microsoft Optical Desktop Elite for Bluetooth - keyboard , mouse

Logitech Optical Mouse RX250

Advantages: good all round mouse
Disadvantages: none

...Logitech Optical Mouse RX250 Logitech are quite well known for making mainly gaming devices to go into various platforms as well as making keyboards, speakers and mouse's for pc's and laptops. They do specialize a little in gaming mouse's for laptops however this mouse could really just be used for anything. Because this mouse is a cool white colour, it doesn't only look modern but it could also go very well with a mac computer if you have one as it would be a lot cheaper and id say better then a mac mouse is. If you don't however this still goes into your laptop and your computer with no trouble and looks pretty cool too. The mouse feels smooth to the touch and it also quite small and fits perfectly into the palm of your hand. Its east to move around and it very precise too. Its an optical mouse which I thinks important these...

Review of Logitech Optical Mouse RX250 - mouse

Labtec mini optical mouse. Excellent mouse that glows in the Dark

Advantages: Good build quality, Accurate and responsive, coloured lights look good
Disadvantages: None

...This is a review of the Labtec mini optical glow mouse. Introduction Most of my online work is done on my laptop computer, but I cannot get along with the built in touch-pad and decided to use a mouse instead, after trying the normal sized mouse borrowed from my desk-top PC, I found that it was too big for the available space that I had, so I bought a mini mouse which was ideal. After using and breaking several unbranded mini mice bought cheaply from my local computer supplies shop I decided to see what was available on line, and after seeing the Labtec mini optical glow mouse, and read some positive reviews on it, I ordered one. What is it? The Labtec mini optical glow mouse is a small wired optical mouse with a USB connector, it is designed for use with laptops and notebook PC?s. The cable The cable...

Review of Labtec Mini Optical Glow Mouse mouse

Best keyboard and mouse i've ever used

Advantages: very easy to use and works straight out the box
Disadvantages: batteries in mouse don't last as long as they should

...customized. the range is good as well. i can use my keyboard and mouse upto 5m away (which is a lot better than most other cordless devices i've tried.) Another good thing about this is that if you change the setting in your bios they will work in dos (i.e. the loading screens before windows opens). lots of other keyboards and mice don't support dos support so that was a good little extra. the only bad thing about this product that i have found is that i have to repace the batteries in the keyboard about once every 2 or 3 weeks. i do sit on my computer for about 3 or 4 hours a day so it will definately last longer for the average user. Apart from that i cannot fault this product. it even came with an attachable wrist support for the keyboard. Superb product, as expected from logitech, and i'd definately recommend this...

Review of Logitech Cordless Desktop Optical - keyboard , mouse

Great Wireless Keyboard & Mouse Combination

Advantages: Feels Really Comfortable, Good Battery Life, Mouse is Really responsive
Disadvantages: Haven't Found Any Yet!

...sit on my sofa about 2 and a half metres away from my PC and view it on my TV which is alot more comfortable than sitting at a computer desk. The battery life is quuite good too as i am still using the original batteries but then again i haven't used my PC much either! The keyboard is slim and feels reall good to type on and the mouse is responsive enough to play first person shooters with. What I have found most useful about the keyboard is the programable keys which are easy to set up with the included software. All software and drivers needed are included int the package so no need to go hunting the internet for it! Whats In The Box? 1X USB Wireless Reciever Box 1x Wireless Optical Mouse 1x Wireless Keyboard UK Layout 1 x receiver cable - integrated - 1.4 m 4x AAA Batteries Specifications: Connectivity Technology...

Review of Logitech Optical Mouse RX250 - mouse

optical mouse, the future

Advantages: cheap, reliable
Disadvantages: large, not good looking

...When it comes to mouse’s, there all pretty much the same, except for of course optical or the ones with little ball bearings in them. However most mouse’s do handle the same, and there is little that can really be changed to a mouse, the size, shape and colour can be changed as can the buttons it has, however sometimes altering these just makes it too snazzy and people cant understand them. I bought this from Argos quite a while ago, and its one of my mouse’s that I use a lot. However one annoying thing about it is its size, and because I have a laptop, I don’t like to take this around with me due to it being too large and not fitting in my bag. This actually cost me £5.47, which is pretty reasonable, especially for Argos, but I do think it was in some kind of sale. Ok so its not the best looking...

Review of Trust Optical PS/2 Mouse MI-2200 - mouse

Belkin Wireless Keyboard & Mouse

Advantages: Cheap & Easy to install
Disadvantages: Small Keyboard Buffer

...I bought this product about 3 months ago from Staples. It cost me around £20.00 when on offer. I though it was cheap, so I though I would try it. I connected the receiver to my desktop PC, put the batteries into the keyboard and mouse, and connected them. Windows XP installed the hardware automatically, and I started using it. The receiver is incredibly small, and looks quite good. The mouse and keyboard are in a uniform colour, so look good when used together. The keyboard allows me to control the volume of the PC from the keyboard, which can be useful. Also it allows me to control My Documents, My Music, My Pictures, Email and the standby mode. It also allows me to control the video player when watching a film, which is very useful. The 9 buttons (Home, End, Insert, Page Up, Page Down, Delete, Print Screen, Scroll Lock...
