Summary: Cool Product
Review: My wife and I just purchased the Michael Graves wireless keyboard and mouse, and we absolutely love it, the only wire to deal with is the one on the control module for the remote. I truly don't think I will replace it. Unless I'm buying another one for another computer.

Summary: Product good, keys bad
Review: The product is of high quality, but the keys are dumb. I have a hard time reading the keys. The white keys need to be brighter, and the red keys are hard to read. Should have used white for layout! C-

Review: THis is a fabulous product!! I was in the market for a new mouse and keyboard and do love good design. What sold me on the product was the fabulous reviews. Everyone was right on the money. This is an easy product to install, it is virtually plug and play and contrary to the other review, it NOT having a USB ready port makes it more compatible with old Pentium 1's that are kicking around. I would recommend this highly to anyone, and I will be purchasing one for my sig. other.

Summary: Neatest thing since sliced bread!
Review: This is an absolutely excellent product, and you just can't beat the price. In our conference room, the computer is back in a corner near the LCD projector. Unfortunately, that's nowhere near the conference table where people sit. Previously, we had to jockey things around and avoid tripping over cables to make things work.

Now, you can sit anywhere in the room and control the PC. You can even pass the keyboard and mouse around. Goodbye cables! And it was completely plug-and-play. Pop the INCLUDED batteries into the keyboard and mouse, plug the RF receiver into the keyboard and mouse ports on the PC, turn on the computer, and you're up and running! The hardest part was opening the sealed plastic packaging.

One other reviewer mentioned an inability to use the keyboard and mouse simultaneously because of channel conflicts. You can--and should--have the two run on different channels. It even says so in the documentation. Unfortunately, the default settings put both on the same channel, so you might have a problem unless you read the documentation first.

My only complaint with the product--the only thing that kept me from giving it five stars--was the size of the mouse. It's a little wide and hard for people with small hands to use. But that's nitpicking.

I'm ordering one for home tonight!

Summary: Mouse locks up
Review: Truely a waste of money. Takes up a bunch of space on my desk. The mouse goes through batteries every 3 weeks. I don't know how, since the mouse doesn't actually DO anything! The keyboard intermittently responds to my keystrokes, but it makes up for it by randomly repeating spaces in documents (even when I'm not typing). The keyboard has a wonderful feature that enables it to paste screen shots into documents automatically -- even when I'm simply trying to cut and paste text! Don't waste your money or time.

Summary: Insufficient Range for Conference Room Application
Review: We purchased this product for a conference room computer which we use for presentations. The distance from the head of our conference table to the A/V cabinet where the computer is housed is 20 feet. Based on our testing, the RF range of the Michael Graves Wireless Keyboard and Mouse combo is only about 12 feet.

We ended up replacing this product with the Microsoft Wireless Desktop for Bluetooth, which has a 30 foot range. Another excellent choice for conference room applications is the Gyration Keyboard and Mouse Suite.

Summary: Mouse locks up
Review: We received this combo set for Christmas. It's a great thing without the cords/wires, but our mouse keeps locking up and when that happens, the keyboard also locks up. It only happens when we are playing on-line games (mainly games that utilize the mouse exclusively or 90 percent of the time). The battery levels are fine (we put brand new batteries in both when we got them). We have moved the receiver box several places as well as changed the mouse speed. with not help to this problem Has anybody had this problem and if so, are there any suggestions? Thanks :)
