Good morning Chaps...

I'm looking for a remote keyboard/mouse combo with a decent range for my lounge set-up... I'll be sitting roughly 6-8m away from the 40" screen.... and will be playing FO3/Oblivion mainly as well as the usual media antics (prob will also pickup a windows remote).


I have an old Logitech effort that, while looking sweet, is damn poor after about 3 metres...

Do you have any recommendations for a decent KB&M combo that'll work reliably at 8m?


Cheers!
 
microsoft top of the line desktop bundle, desktop 7000 says 30 ft which is roughly just over 9m same with the desktop 5000

there is also the logitech mx 5500 bundle which is bluetooth and states 30ft. is a bit more of a gaming bundle than microsoft's

Cheers mate.... Have you used either of the above to state if the claims true?

Most of the 2.4ghz advertised models state 10m range - I was wondering whether there were users on here that could give experience on whether true or not.

If all 2.4ghz models are effective I'll try pick up a set for sub £40
 
The only wireless setup I've used which was worthwhile was the Logitech desktop 2800 Pro. I used it from the kitchen downstairs while the tower was in the upstairs bedroom (just to test obviously). Unfortunately discontinued now...
I have had 2 Microsoft wireless setups and hated them both for their short range/missed keystrokes.
Just my twopenneth.
