I really wanted to like this kb/mouse combo, but had to return it and get a competitor's instead. On this Microsoft Desktop 2000 Wireless combo, the mouse wheel rolls freely as opposed to having stops when you roll it. The kind of wheel that sort of pauses at intervals while you are rolling works better for me. Probably just a personal preference, but the Microsoft product really seemed to jump around when I was scrolling. If I had scrolled down and then released the wheel, the screen would jump back up a few lines - and vice versa when scrolling up.

Im in love i believe i have had this for a little more than a month now and its still doing strong. I went to the Apple store, and saw an Apple mouse and keyboard.... Cool, but i dont wanna pay $120 before tax on a wireless and mouse. Thats like 2 1/2 weeks worth of groceries... well anyways, so i did some surfing and Im happy i looked. Looking saved me like $60+!!! GO BEST BUY!!!

need to include reference sheet regarding the symbols on the keyboard. they are not all self explanatory. also don't like the fact that there is no light indicator when the CAPs Lock is active. otherwise good quality product.

Keyboard serves its purpose. Design is a little small, and if you have big hands I would probably recommend something different. Probably better off spending a few extra bucks and getting a nicer combo.

Keyboard is great, the mouse should have a couple more buttons for back and forward such as the mouse 5000 model does.

I needed a wireless keyboard and mouse to use with both my PC and my MacBook Pro. I looked at several different ones before deciding on this one. I've been using it for a couple of months now, and there have been no problems at all -- I plug the wireless receiver into my USB port, and I'm up and running. I've been very happy with this keyboard and mouse.

SImple, easy to set up and use. Mouse has a good feel, not like a lot of other wireless items that feel light and cheap.
