 fifty-fifty September 13, 2008
D. Allan KING (UK)
Just to reiterate some of the points others have made about the Labtec desktop. The keyboard is very good, exactly what I wanted. powered by two AAA batteries (included) it connects to the system easily and effectively.
But what is wrong with the mouse? It seemed to work erratically at first (two AA batteries here) but, just as with another reviewer, it stopped left clicking, (then right clicking) after two days (why two days? is it always two days? spooky!), and connection could not be resumed.
I'm back to my older wired logitech mouse (which I was not so keen to replace anyway), but I'm left a bit concerned as to if and when the keyboard goes the same way. For the price the keyboard alone - if it keeps working - seems worth the bother. The only trouble is, at the moment, that seems a big "if".
 PS/2 DESKSET ONLY - NOT USB August 26, 2008
JTAN (Newcastle upon Tyne, UK)
I'm sure this is a good product, I've had good experience with Labtec in the past. The units do look sleek and easy to use, and I'm sure if you've got a desktop it will provide a good replacement for your current wired keyboard and mouse (for that price anyway).
BUT, I've just received this product from Amazon, and realised that the wireless receiver plugs into the computer by PS/2 connections. I had planned to connect my laptop to my HD telly and use the wireless desktop, but since my laptop (and most) only supports USB connections, its pretty useless to me.
If, like me, you don't have PS/2 connections, try a different keyboard, such as this almost identical one: (I wish I had)

 Perfect solution to your wireless needs August 2, 2008
Yoshi Man (Romford, London, England)
I needed a wireless mouse and keyboard and this was a very good deal considering the price. As it uses your computer's PS/2 ports there is no need for the supplied software unless you want to customize the keys.
The keyboard is about right in terms of how it is to touch and the mouse is a breeze to use. The instruction manual tells the user how to connect the keyboard and mouse wirelessly yet it does it automatically.
Only one thing I don't like about the keyboard is that for some strange reason the caps and num lock lights are on the receiver but not on the actual keyboard.
Other than that this is well worth buying as it comes with everything you need including batteries.
Great value! Working in seconds! January 25, 2008

Opened this just now, straight out of the box, plugged the wires in and it connected to both the keybooard and mouse in seconds, works perfectly without even using the disc, which is only needed if you want to change the shortcut keys. All in all very good value, not usb, but that might be a plus point if you're short of them!! Recommened!
 Lots of Problems September 8, 2007

I unfortunately didn't get on well with this product. After 2 days the mouse wouldn't let me left click on anything on the task bar. And when I entered a game (via the desk top of course), as soon as tried to click on anything it was minimised onto the task bar where I couldn't get to it. I tried a replacement and updates on the labtec site to no avail. Not recommended.
