There are many Wireless Keyboard and Mice Desktop sets available, and I have had the privilege of playing with quite a few, however the best one I have come across and the one I use is one of the cheapest, the Microsoft Wireless Desktop 1000.
At the time of writing ebuyer.co.uk have this selling for £24.95 which compared to some of the other big names is very cheap. Why is it my favorite? Because:
- Battery Life is Excellent, I forget how long ago I replaced the batteries in the set, probably around 8 months, and there is no sign that they are running out yet!
- Doesn’t randomly disconnect – I have found that a number of the others regularly need to be reconnected. Although this is only the press of a few buttons it is frustrating. I haven’t ever had to do it to this keyboard and mouse, not even on setup!
- Long Lasting – My last one of these lasted over 2 years, and why did it need replacing…I tipped coffee over it! – Not the keyboards fault!
- It has a few useful extra buttons including links to my docs, my pics, my music, volume/multimedia controls, mail, browser, messenger, calculator, log off and sleep.
- Comfortable to use. It is important that if you use a keyboard and mouse as much as me that you find them comfortable to use.
- Finally, it is cheap!
So there we go, a quick tip on what Wireless Desktop Kit to use
