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...

Logitech Cordless Deluxe 660 Keyboard and Mouse

Advantages: User Friendly,Quiet Operation.
Disadvantages: Key board Lift(feet Raised)not user friendly.

...When i ordered another Computer I was looking for an updated Keyboard..and mouse... Logitech certainly have come out on top with this one,and should be proud of a package like the Deluxe 660. The Good thing about it is it's stylish easy to use keyboard very friendly towards the user and setting it up is a breeze too...comes complete with all the software one could imagine and installation guide is very comprehensive which highlights the areas of installing the software Pretty Easy!!!...

Logitech Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

Advantages: Wireless
Disadvantages: Sometimes doesn't work

...I love these things! My keyboard and mouse are awesome for me. I sometimes get cold, and my laptop is by my bed, so instead of getting up and being cold, I get under the covers and just take the keyboard and put it on top. It is very, very, very convenient.. And my mouse pad it kind of slippery, so the mouse slides off sometimes, but there still aren't any scratches or other damages done to it yet. It's amazing.And, if you're super lazy, (no offense anyone) there is a mouse on the keyboard. You can just change the settings in the Control Panel. The mouse uses arrows. You will see blue one on the number pad wen you get this product. Notice I said WHEN you get this product, not IF you get this product. If you have the money, you're getting it. Now. Get out of bed, go to the store, and buy one. And you can't do it online from bed because...

Review of Logitech Cordless Desktop EX 100 - keyboard , mouse

A cheap, simple but good quality keyboard and mouse.

Advantages: Good quality, cheap, optical mouse
Disadvantages: PS2 not USB

...About a week ago I was happily typing away on my computer and suddenly found that some letters were missing from what I had typed. A check showed that the entire bottom row of letters, except for some reason B and N, were not working, along with the comma and full stop. I tried the usual troubleshooting, unplugging it, plugging it in another USB port, restarting the computer, shaking it, hitting it, hitting it with a sledgehammer (ok, I didn't go that far, I don't have a sledgehammer at home), and still it wouldn't work. Thankfully windows comes with an on-screen keyboard, which allows you to click the keys with the mouse, so I could survive. The only spair keyboards I could find either had the old style big round connectors, which I have an adapter for but have no idea where, or were the one that I'd had previously that also missed...

Labtech Wireless Keyboard and Mouse review

Advantages: Wireless
Disadvantages: Power Use

...Well just got my new The Labtec Ultra-Flat Wireless Keyboard and mouse for a good price from my local Morrison's. So, what do I think of it so far? Well to be honest I am presently typing this on my old hard wired keyboard and mouse, the reason? Is that after just two days of moderate use the batteries have gone flat in the mouse and has become unusable! My last keyboard of this type had the same problem and I thought it was just a problem with the manufacturer that I chose but I now think it is a design fault in the way wireless keyboards are built and sold. I think the problem is with the way they use the laser in the mouse and this drains too much power thus flattening the batteries very soon with use. This is not good, and not only is it very expensive to use as they need the best types of power cells just to work at all...

A well laid out keyboard

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

.... I could go on and list all of the small improvements the keyboard brings into the market, but I don't think it's necessary. None of them are truly revolutionary, but as a whole, they make for an incredible typing experience. Now, regarding the mouse... The mouse is ambidextrous, and the button on your 'left' side is not comfortable to push at all. However, it won't get pushed by accident too easily, so unless you really need two buttons, you can just ignore it. The sensor quality is fine enough for everyday use. For gaming you're probably going to need a corded mouse anyway. However efficient the battery use may be, you'll still hate it when they run out of power right when you're about to frag something! I've been having sweat problems with the 'butt' of the mouse, but the lateral grips stay dry. REVIEW UPDATE: It's been more than...

Great Wireless Keyboard & Mouse Combination

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

...Trust XpertTouch Wireless DS-3200 - keyboard & Mouse Review: I purchased my trust keyboard and mouse about 6 weeks ago now from PC World and was at first a bit apprehensive as this was hthe first thing i had bought from there for a long time due to thier total lack of organisation and knowledgde about the particular products i have previously purchased but was told by my brother that they were being sold for just £15 and were pretty good so i bit the bullet and goit one anyway afterall it was only £15 so didn't really matter too much if it did turn out to be useless! However i bought it home plugged it in put in the disk and it installed itself.... it worked! (Possibly the only thing i have brought fom there that does!) After using this for a few weeks i am actually quite happy with it the range is pretty good and i can...

Review of Trust XpertTouch Wireless Optical Slimline Deskset DS-3200 RU - keyboard , 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...

Logitech MX3000 wireless keyboard / laser mouse.

Advantages: Total precision of laser mouse and comfort hold
Disadvantages: non rechargeable batteries

...I was firstly just looking around for a laser mouse as my cordless keyboard I had was still in good condition but the mouse was on it's last legs and was eating batteries. On doing my research I found that pricewise it was better value for money to purchase the complete desktop set which included a laser mouse. I have always been a fan of Logitech and have used their products over the years without any problems. This latest product is without doubt one of my better purchases. Package Contents Logitech® MX? 3000 cordless keyboard Logitech® MX? 600 cordless laser mouse USB / PS/2 RF receiver with 3 LEDs Detachable palm rest • 4 AA alkaline batteries • CD with software, comfort guidelines and help center • Logitech® Media Life? software • Quick Start Guide •...

Genius Keyboard and mouse

Advantages: Rechargable batteries and charger, cool design
Disadvantages: some keys are a liitle small and close together

...The genius keyboard and mouse are great if you require something a little smaller then normal, they are both compact and the fact that the mouse is optical is also an added bonus. The battery life is probably better then most wireless products I have tried and the fact that the receiver also charges a spare set of batteries which are included is also very good. The keyboard is very light, slim and feels like it has been well built with very little rattle in the keys, the keys themselves do seem a little squashed in though, but this has been done to make the unit smaller, the home, end etc keys are a little tricky to use and there seems to be an issue if you want to highlight lots of data using them as they are brought into use with the shift key anyway. The cursor keys have been crammed in under the enter key which has also been...
