Hey guys, I'm looking to get myself a wireless keyboard/mouse for my media pc. I'm looking for a keyboard with a trackball/pad built-in. I don't want a seperate mouse. Anyone got any ideas of what product might fit my needs? Thx,
i have the MS wireless optical desktop! itsvery good, has what you said you wanted, and hs a fairly good connection... the only bad thing is it gets a bit jumpy around other wireless devices if you have them! http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/prod...2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=52114
im in school but ill give you the link when i get home to a wireless keyboard w/ a built in joy stick great for media centers it was right around 150.00 in either tigerdirect.com or cyberguys.com cant remeber which one.
Bogomip: that looks like it has seperate mouse, I'm really after one with a mouse built into the keyboard; it's for use from my sofa. FILTHY1337: sounds good mate, I look forward to the link.
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1179191&CatId=537 there you go sorry for the wait i forgot all about it. i have seen a few oem manufactures use this for thier media centers, looks pretty cool too.
I know Gyration makes a good keboard/handheld mouse combo that may be worth looking at -- you said no mouse, but this one requires no mousepad..may be a plus. Bah, this is just the kb/mouse, this one has a media center remote built into the mouse. EDIT: Bugger, just realized you aren't in the America. Oh well, that at least shows you the junk....
Interesting thanks. I'm really looking for one with a trackball/pad in the keyboard though, I have a remote already which will be used for 90% of the functions, the keybaord/mouse is just for email/web.
You can get the gyration mouse/keyboard for £49.99 from the computer shop, well the one near my work has it. These normally retail for £89.99 so its a good deal. I have one of these cost me £23 inc delivery and has a distance of about 4-5 metres.
