Need Wireless Keyboard Advice

Lots of people seem to like the Logitech Freedom Wireless Keyboard with Wireless Optical Mouse package. I have one and although it is somewhat pricey, the mouse is excellent and the keyboard response quite well. I do find that the keyboard eats up batteries in about a month, but rechargeable took care of that problem.


I'm very happy with mine.

Gryration makes a wireless keyboard and wireless optical mouse that works off of RF for a distance of 25 feet. I bought the package yesterday at Compusa for $100.00 for my HTPC, and am very happy with it. The keyboard is about the size of a laptop keyboard. The mouse can be used on a pad, or you can hold it in your hand and the mouse pointer will follow your hand movements. I have verified that it works for at least 20 feet in my enviroment. The receiver plugs into a USB port and can handle 3 devices.


The unit has 8 channels and 65,000 codes to prevent interference with other devices. Also, the mouse uses a rechargeable NMH battery.


You can also find open box units on e-bay for less than $60. Search for "gyration".

I've got one and like it too, I can sit in an easy chair and surf the net, do email and control my software DVD player..."No strings attached "

Thanks guys...2 to 1 ....Gyration it is. The RF idea and padless mouse sounds good. I'll head down to compusa today. Wonder if they will take a return on a slightly used IR keyboard and mouse...
