Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Desktop 7000 Keyboard and Mouse

If you're left with a few shillings after a Vista OS upgrade, you may want to sink the rest of your cash into this sleek Bluetooth keyboard and mouse combo. Designed specifically to take advantage of Vista, this peripheral was definitely conceived with entertainment junkies in mind. When you're computing from the couch, the keyboard's built-in navigation pad and multimedia controls make navigating Windows Media Center as easy as perusing your MP3 player. And the rechargeable wireless mouse features silky smooth scrolling and excellent battery life. Who knows? Someday this little company from Redmond, Washington, just might amount to something.

WIRED Less than an inch thick. Lightweight and sturdy. Elegant, uncluttered design. Mouse-emulating keyboard controls work perfectly. Keyboard enters sleep mode when you're away to conserve battery power. Both mouse and keyboard sport battery life indicators. Mouse performance can be adjusted to regulate battery life.

TIRED Small directional pad unresponsive at times, hard to use accurately. Keyboard isn't rechargeable or backlit. No number pad, small arrow keys. A tad expensive.
