As well as being able to use it as a straight replacement for a desktop mouse and keyboard, it also works great as the keyboard and mouse for a HTPC system... When I first built my HTPC/SFF system late last year I got a Microsoft wireless mouse and keyboard. While the mouse worked great from a several feet away, the keyboard... well let's just say it was barely wireless. - The Review

I think if you buy wireless you need to buy almost top of the line to truely get "wireless". From expirence i wont buy anything under a
MX-700.

That logitech puck is the same one they use for all their wireless keyboards and mice. My combo, the MX500 or whatever it is (the grey one) works well, but the mouse does get choppy when the batteries get low. Check your batteries if you experience the same problem and I also advise rechargable Ni-Mh batteries cause these suckers, the mouse especially, eat through batteries like a fat kid in a candy store.
