Thread: Wireless keyboard and mouse.

Hi,

i m in the last stages of building my new HTPC, can some1 plz suggest a Wireless keyboard and mouse. It needs good battery life, long range(atleast 7-10 feet) and if it has an option to switch off/on , it would be gr8.

My budget is about 2-3K.

iball wireless keyboard and mouse are for abt 2k.check it out on futurebazaar.com

they claim to have a range of 20ft.

I chked an iball keyboard and mouse, it said its 2.4GHz. I could not find the range anywhere on it. Should i go 4 it ??? Its 1.5k .

Effective range of the mentioned iball keyboard/mouse combination should be 10 feet .

hey can u plz provide me a link of a keyboard which has a bit more range ??
If there is no other, i will go 4 this only.

I will suggest Logitech KB/Mouse combo. It will be more expsensive but very reliable and most have ranges well beyond 10 ft.

Check eBay.in for prices. Ordering from eBay is safe (though some members have reservations) but there is shipping charges to be paid. If available locally, buy it from the shop.

I found good deals in Keyboards | Buy Keyboards | Purchase Keyboards | shop for Keyboards | Cheap Keyboards | buy Keyboards online | Keyboards for Low Price | affordable Keyboards Maybe u can also try the same.

where ever you get your keyboard and mouse from just make sure its of iball brand which is a good and reliable quality!

the iball mouse keyboard i told was the one i saw on ebay.
it clearly mentions there 20 ft range.
i think its the best for you.
btw, whats your main usage??

k i shall chk it there. Mainly for entertainment usage(Movies,music,etc) on the HTPC. Occasional gaming(need to get rid of my addiction). Some 3Ds max.

if u r a hardcoe gamer,then go for creative or logitech ones.they are more accurate and reliable with lot more clicks life.

if general entertainment only, then iball one's are the best!!

can u plz send links with ur suggestions. Which ones are u talking abt ??
I currently own a logitech wireless keyboard and mouse and i hate it. So plz send in links.

you can check out zebronics.com
they have a pro-series of mouse keyboards tv tuners etc.there they have specil gaming wireless mouse with a weird shape!!

way too showy for me. I dont like too many lights.
I was first thinking of this keyboard frm Logi:
Logitech Cordless Desktop S510 Media Remote

But i cant find it in stores or even on their website. It had a good, thin keyboard, laser mouse and a remote that lets u do every thing. Would have been gr8 for HTPC.

the one mentioned there has a weird shape too.god knows how it would set in the hand...

wellthe good-ol' optical mouse works for me!!
