    Allo allo

    Anyone have a good suggestion for a wireless keyboard/mouse combo? I want to start using my HDTV as the main display for playing games/watching movies, and because im a lazy git I can't be arsed moving the TV around or getting up to select a different movie!

    I've had a look around but nothing really stands out or is seriously overpriced :sigh:

    Any suggestions would be great...

    Had a look at both sugestions. Must admit the logitech one is very nice.

    Right, time to decide!

    Cheers

    Hmm................still trying to decide.

    The microsoft 7000 mouse/keyboard is extremly tempting (and sexy) as is the diNovo. The only thing thats bothering me is the price. I just can't get my head round spending £70+ on a keyboard/mouse. But then the keyboards that are any lower in price seem to look like they have been ripped right out of a laptop (not sexy).

    Oh what the hell, might just buy me a early christmas present :D

    Cheers for the suggestions!
