Newby To Gaming - Help Re:keyboard/Game Controller!

[hitman]

Need some advice as a complete newby to gaming. Played Spore tonight for first time and enjoyed it but realise that my keyboard is a nightmare to use and I need a new mouse. Have been intending to get the logitech mx518 mouse anyway, but can anyone recommend a keyboard mostly for office use but some gaming?? Or do people go for specific game controllers or something like this:

Wow, quick responses!! Thanks everyone, got something to think about now. Will probably go for one of the logitech keyboards, as the old keyboard I'm using at the moment has buttons that stick, and sometimes don't work at all - quite frustrating!!
Any other advice from other forum members ,most appreciated
