Rep Power: 22 | Re: Wireless Keyboard and Mouse I dont know about a keyboard but I can highly recommend the Logitech MX 1000 It sits in the cradle to recharge and the battery life is typically 3 weeks or so and as for range I have tested it in the next room and it works fine  |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: Wireless Keyboard and Mouse We use the Gyration keyboards and mice - they worked the length of our largest classroom and you can use the mouse in the air. Apparently it's all in the wrist action... |

Rep Power: 10 | Re: Wireless Keyboard and Mouse I got a couple of (very) cheap M$ wireless keyboard and mouse but their range is crap, even with the reciever on the top of the tower in direct line of sight. Great keyboard and mouse though despite it all. |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: Wireless Keyboard and Mouse i would recommend a bluetooth kb and mouse, purely for battery life and range. I used to have a logitech DiNovo but i think thats overkill for a school. Im currently on an apple bluetooth kb and mouse and ive only changed the batteries in the mouse once since i bought it in october, the kb is on the original set. |

Rep Power: 44  | Re: Wireless Keyboard and Mouse My home system has a Logitech MX3100 cordless desktop. The MX1000 mouse is ACE (it has a laser) but the keyboard isn't all that. Range is definately more than 2m too. The Gyration stuff is good too but you pay the price (although admittedly the MX1000 mouse is £40). Gyration equipment is designed for presenting from a distance too. |
