    I got one and work great, my problem is move from the straight layout to this curved. I need to look and type a little slower with this at home. I don't use this mouse, have the MS Natural 6000, so I have two different receivers as the one for the keyboard won't recognize the mouse.
    Probably the biggest downer is it's 20 inch plus long.

    I've never understood the attraction of wireless keyboards. What do you gain to make up for having to worry about having batteries on hand for when it dies? I use a wireless mouse and not having a mouse cord is a big convenience but the keyboard just sits there.

    wireless? you still have to have a receiver connected to the computer, so in theory you extend the range of keyboard by been "wireless" to the keyboard and mouse.

    Basically you are dropping only one wire but I find these not as reliable as a wired mouse and keyboard.

    Well, no, there ISN'T much point to wireless if you're sitting at a desk, but think HTPCs. No one wants to sit four feet from the TV, or have a giant USB extension cord running across the floor.

    I like wireless keyboards. I can place it on my laps, move back and forth. Changing the the positions of the hands help.
