Wireless Keyboard & Mouse options

[Claire Drew]

I have been looking at getting a wireless Keyboard & Mouse. Have seen a number of products from Logitech with different price ranges.

I want the set to be used for surfing the web and also some very basic game playing SOF2. Also to access my music,Mail,Films and other apps.

I would like to have all the media options on the keyboad so can sit back and relax instead of be lent over the PC desk all night.

I have seen the new technology is the lazor stuff but dont realy know much more.

The ones I have seen are

LX500
LX700
Logitech MX Duo
MX 3000
MX 5000

The last 2 are a little expensive and I dont realy want to spend above £27

Also what are the others options out there that are good (any make) and any recomendations would help. Black/Silver ideal colour.

Unfortunately I cannot comment on the Fellowes Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, but can comment on the Logitech MX Duo, I have had this keyboard/mouse combination for sometime, and have found it very good, the mouse in this combination is the Logitech MX 700.

I'm sure you should be able to pick this combo up at a reasonable price.
