Has anyone tried out the new diNovo Cordless Desktop? I'm thinking about getting one for $115 at Amazon for my laptop.

My plan is to use the diNovo keyboard and media pad along with my MX1000 at home, and diNovo media pad and minimouse on the go. It comes with cases for both the minimouse and media pad, and has a little dongle reciever instead of a whole dock.

The diNovo Cordless Desktop costs less too.

What color does this actually look like in real life? It looks like a blue/green in most of the pictures, but in some it looks kind of black and I just want to know what color it is.

Also, do you know if SetPoint 2.22 is compatible with Outlook 2003?

is that DiNovo 2 actually proper layout? without the "\ and | key" over where the shift is supposed to be? because I hit the shift too far right to justify re-learning the keybnoard so I can hit the shift key at the far left, not the far left.

Guess no one will know until it's out in stores.

How are you getting it for $115? I see it for $121.99 at amazon.

The key is already in the correct position.... Dazzla is in the UK, hence having a UK layout Keyboard. The US version will have the keys in the same position you are used to.

Edit: The picture on the box in the first post is the US layout of the keyboard, Dazzla's pic further down shows the UK layout.

Tell us how you like it when you get it! :) Also, how is the range on it? Since it's RF, I'm not expecting a whole lot, but I'm wondering if the Media Pad will work from the 8' or so across my room.

Also, the diNovo Cordless Desktop is currently $118.53 and the diNovo Media Desktop is currently $153.00 at Amazon. Both have free shipping.

This is really a reply to 2226 :

would prefer to use MS BT stack
posted about a month ago.

I've found that Setpoint 2.22 includes some drivers that should in theory work with/use the Microsoft Bluetooth stack rather than the Widcomm stack.

In the folder C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\Drivers\Win2K_XP\ ,

the files lRcvBthK.inf and lrcvusbk.cat are a WHQL signed bluetooth driver using the MS stack.

So far I've only been able to install them after installing the Widcomm stack and updating the bluetooth device in the device manager, I wish this was not nessacary but I have yet to find another sucessfull way to install this driver.

Perhaps someone smarter than me will have some luck.

Had mine since the middle of june, and its still very clean and good for me. The keys aren't faded at all. A couple of the keys(back space) have this weird spring sound/feel sometimes (discussed earlier in here), but its very rare and happened when it was brand new aswell. I see myself replacing this during summer 2005 just cause I will be way bored of it by then and something better might be out by then. As of right now there is nothing I would replace this keyboard with.

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
