    Well if anyone wants a review, I would say 10/10- great- they have no wires!! (besides one USB that connects the main signal thingy- that alone makes me happy) they have volume control, main keyboard, stop-play-ffwrd and etc for music which works with Itunes, Napster, WMP and no doubt other media players and the batterys seem to last well- I use my computer probably around 5-10 hours a day every day and have had my keyboard in use for a month now, the batteries seem to be working as well as when I first plugged in the keyboard and mouse.

    The only issue I have (and its probably my computer rather then the keyboard + mouse) is that when I turn on my computer, unless I move the mouse to turn on a programme within the first 2 minutes of booting-up, I have to unplug and replug the USB port to get the computer to recognise the mouse and keyboard. But thats Dell for you.

    I got this from Tesco, very happy with it, very good value
  • I bought one of these a couple of weeks back from my local Tesco Extra for the same price as OP, very easy to set up with clear instructions, I was up and running within 10 minutes.

    I did some searches through this forum to see if there were any similar posts for the same keyboard and stopped myself from posting this exactsmae thread when I found out that Morrison's were selling them at the beginning of the year for a tenner :rotfl:Still, I am made up with this purchase, mouse is extremely responsive, cannot comment on battery life yet, but all good so far

    stupid question, it says wireless, however do the keyboard and mouse need to be in line of sight for the dongle, or could for example this be used with a PC in the cupboard, and then sitting on the sofa with the K/B and mouse working on the PC on the LCD?
    IE, what is the range and will a wall stop it working?

    What you do get is a sort of port which connects via a USB port which does have a cabel (I have plugged mine into the back of my computer). That then 'connects' both the keyboard and mouse.

    Best thing I have found is that you don't even need a direct invisible line to connect the keyboard/mouse (like you may need with for example, some TV/Remote controls) my port fell down under my desk- I didn't know until I came to clear up my desk properly again- a week later-and remembered it falling the previous week. Keyboard and mouse signal had been working fine throughout.

    They are wireless radio, and so do not need line of sight (unlike the older infrared ones).
    I saw on in my local Tesco supermarket but decided to try bying online from Tesco Direct. but it added a £5 delivery charge (even for collection from store).

    You need to spend £25 to get free delivery or you can add a henry hoover bag for free premium delivery... but you have to buy the bag at £3.49

    Got it recently and V happy with it. Dead easy to install and worked like a dream first time.
    The atmosphere is currently filled with hypocrisy so thick that it could be sliced, wrapped, and sold in supermarkets for a decent price and labeled, 'Wholegrain Left-Wing, Middle-Class, Politically-Correct Organic Hypocrisy'.
  • Now this really IS a stupid question I think but will ask anyway - need 2 wireless mice for two newly purchased laptops - could these be a good buy but only to use the mouse in each case?

    So, if just using the mouse, will it work?
    Does it make it less of a bargain?
    If only I could stop finding good bargains on this site, I would save a fortune! :rotfl:
