Who love wireless crap?

Recommended Posts

I don't, but I really don't like all the annoying wireless all over my desk. So tomorrow I'm getting a nifty Wireless keyboard/mouse setup. :)

 

Now this is where you all comment on how you have never had any bad experiences with wireless devices.And that I am actually a fool for not having this setup sooner!

 

Not that my trusty Dell Keyboard and Mouse from 2002 are to be wasted, they get to used for my "old" computer for my silly parents. :)

If your going to get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo don't go for the cheap crap, I recommend Logitech. I've been using the the Logitech Cordless Desktop MX3000 mouse and keyboard since April 2006 and I have no problems at all, read a review here http://www.thetechzone.com/?m=show&id=346. The only minor thing, you have to change the batteries in the mouse every 3 months or so.

Some keyboard/mouse combos give you the benefit of a rechargeable mouse that sits in dock thingy over night. Have a look at the Log range starting here http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboard...s/&cl=nz,en.

I know what you mean, but I just had to point that out.

 

Btw, I never liked wireless. As long as it's optical, it does for me. Wireless tends to be unresponsive, you have to change the batteries too often, you get that annoying wireless receiver you gotta put on your desk (less space), and blablabla you get the point :)

Response times are a thing of the past, all modern wireless keyboard/mouse combos work great.

Well I have my new wireless combo now. I'm actually rather suprised at how responsive the mouse is... A little TOO responsive to be honest. Someting to get use to I suppose. :)

Not when you got a lot of other tech goodies lying around. I've had bad experiences with wireless products before I will rely on my cords.

well, you can buy a battery charger for 5$.

I just don't like to mess around with batteries and stuff when your mouse starts to complain in the middle of something.

 

guess the power supply is batteries for the keyboard also?

My wireless keyboard mouse combo, had a charger built into the reciever. Pitty these batteries are totally ****ing useless. I had the mouse and in the space of a month had to change out hte batteries 4 times. I've changed to cool Energizer batteries and the problem is solved. :) Pitty it takes forever to charge them on the receiver. :P lol.

Well after about two months now, I'm reasonably happy with my setup. The Mouse battery issue has been resolved now and all is good in the world. :)

Wireless mouse and keyboard came with my new PC last year. I hated so much back then although I've already gotten used to it. Stupid batteries... You got any idea how much would I be spending if I hadn't bought rechargable ones?
