Hey, just so you know ... this post is now about 19 years and 11 months old. Please keep that in mind as it very well may contain broken links and/or outdated information.

Much as I loved my old Microsoft Internet Keyboard Pro, it had been discontinued by Microsoft, and the media keys didn’t seem to work to well with the latest players. Also, it was white, and everyone knows that black (for computer accessories) is the new beige. So it was time for a change, and why not go wireless? I now have the Logitech Cordless MX Duo, a wireless keyboard/mouse combination, which also replaced my Microsoft Optical Trackball Explorer. The keyboard has (as most do nowadays) several programmable hotkey buttons and dedicated media keys. The mouse features a scroll wheel, forward/back buttons, continuous scroll up/down buttons, and includes a handy charging cradle (which also contains the wireless receiver).

Logitech also has a Bluetooth version of this package, but since I don’t have any other Bluetooth devices (except my iPAQ), I decided to save the extra money and stick with the 27Mhz wireless version.
