Default Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop

Microsoft is always coming out with some new things, and this time its the wireless laser desktop 6000. The ergonomic design of the desktop makes using a computer more comfortable and relaxing.
The laser desktop 6000 is a keyboard which has the comfort curve design of Microsoft, and the keys have been designed so that your fingers get into the perfect position so you are able to work for long hours with comfort.
You will also find some Windows Vista Aero shortcut keys. Other short cut keys include access to Windows Flip, Zoom, Mail Client, and five others which you can adjust and program to your own needs.
The laser technology of the desktop allows it to give more precise control as compared to optical products. And the tilt wheel on the mouse allows you to not only scroll horizontally but vertically too. And this is a feature which will be loved by all the gamers.
The keyboard uses 2 AA batteries which should last at least 4 months if using the computer daily for at least 6-8 hours.

Actually vertical scrolling is common... I always pondered, why the mouses are'nt sold in common 4 horizontal scrolling. Its obviously much compy and faster to move fingers than the whole wrist!!!

Nice post.

Retail $99. I got it for half the price via Logitech Employee/Contractor discount.

Actually I have a thread on this in Computer Accessories section.
