Sir Topham Hatt Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I have a wireless keyboard and mouse. The keyboard is great, the batteries last for 6-12 months easily. In fact, I don't remember the last time I changed them! My mouse on the other hand, rubbish! The batteries go every 4-5 months I guess, but it just annoys me when they do. Yet, I love having no wires as it makes moving things around a lot easier, and keeps the desk tidy. So I guess I am wondering if people have one wired one not or what their set up is.

MR_Candyman Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I have 2 Dinovo Edge keyboards (wireless), an MX Revolution mouse (wireless) which I hardly use anymore, a Logitech G9, and a Razer Deathadder, both wired. I prefer wired mice, but the Dinovo Edge is wonderful, I loves them :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/719222-do-you-have-wireless-mice-and-keyboards/#findComment-590386218 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Topham Hatt Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) I have 2 Dinovo Edge keyboards (wireless), an MX Revolution mouse (wireless) which I hardly use anymore, a Logitech G9, and a Razer Deathadder, both wired. I prefer wired mice, but the Dinovo Edge is wonderful, I loves them :D That's a nice keyboard. I use the number pad though a fair bit so not having one would really annoy me (for the first few months). However, my current keyboard is fairly compact. There's nothing wrong with it, but I just am looking to see what's about. rechargeable batteries ftw? They are :p They need recharging then.

UKer Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Backilit wired keyboard and mouse (razer). Bought a Logitech MX revolution wireless mouse recently as I wanted to play easily from my couch using my TV, but found it about half as responsive and accurate as the wired one for games (I really could notice the difference), so I sold it and switched back to my old mouse. If they ever make wireless mice as good as wired, then I'll use one, but can't be doing with them currently.

shihchiun Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I always have a wireless mouse (Currently the Microsoft Arc), but the keyboard I don't really care about, unless I happen to have a sliding keyboard tray, which makes a cord annoying. Right now I've got some Dell model. At school I have some cheap Logitech wireless mouse/keyboard set, which is fine.

Clete2 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I love my wireless mouse/keyboard combination. I have had a wireless mouse/keyboard combo for a number of years now. I had a Logitech MX3000 combo which recently kicked the bucket. For Christmas, my fiance got me a new Logitech MX3200 combo, which is great.

roadgeek9 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I have a laptop. So, if we want to be specific, you could say "wired." But the keyboard and mouse are both built into the machine.

Guest ID2 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 What's the point of the summary? You're asked to repeat what you've already answered, and it obviously only confuses matters, because the numbers aren't stacking up. According to the first two questions, most people have a wireless mouse and a wired keyboard, but according to the third question which asks for exactly the same information, the opposite is true!
