Horrible

I'm sorry to say that it was a horrible buy. I loved it at first, but then I began to notice that even with full battery and full signal, about every 20 keys that you press, one doesn't register. It gets very annoying that I have to keep repressing keysover and over before it registers that I've hit it once. I love the product design, cost, and ease of use, but it keeps thinking that I haven't hit the key when I have. The mouse is great, it almost never acts up. The keyboard makes the buy horrible,it's like having some of the keys missing because when you hit them, on the screen it appears as if you haven't. Very annoying.

Not as good as I hoped

I bought this so I could sit on my sofa and surf the net while my computer is hooked to my HDTV. I am only sitting 10 feet away from the reciever, and it has a hard time picking up the left mouse button. THe volume key isn't working for some reason, as well.

I like not having cords running across my computer desk. It seems to work well but sometimes there is a delay in typing letters. and the signal for the mouse becomes low - which really doesn't affect performance - a pop up window comes up though to let you know.
