I have a wirles mouse and keyboard. My husband bought them when my daughter rabbit chewed the other keyboard and mouses wires. That rabbit almost came rabbit stew fo Easter his year. I have it this mouse and keyboard for awhile now. It goes thrugh batteries lke crazy. It also tends to skip spaces and not type a letter that I wish o have typed in. I am always trying to catch the mistakes. It is driving me crazy because normally I do not make so any typos. do you have a wireless mouse or keyboard? if so, how do you like it?

I have a wireless mouse and keyboard and I think it is very convenient so I don't need to be careful of the wire.

I have both, ut like you I found that they require too many batteries. When you are on the computer as much as I am, the wireless ones are just not worth the effort and the money to continually change the batteries. I now am using the wired ones.

I have a wireless mouse that my wife bought be for Christmas to use with my laptop. I only use it occasionally, but it works really well. I don't leave it plugged into the USB port when I am not using it. I am sure it wouldn't take long to kill the batteries in it if I did. I really like it, though, because I usually use my laptop on my couch, and the wireless mouse works well on my couch cushion, and not having the wire of a regular mouse to get in the way is pretty nice.

I have neither right now. I used to have a wireless mouse and I loved it. But when I stopped and thought about the expense of buying batteries and more importantly the toxic chemicals and heavy metals from batteries going into our landfills I decided to just deal with the wires. At least the copper wires are recyclable and sometimes I use the whole cord to make jewelry.

I have both and I really like the convenience, BUT I miss the precision that comes with wired complements. I feel like as an apartment dweller, the added space and mobility from wireless pays out. I did invest into some re-chargeable batteries. Just be sure you have enough sets : )

I thought once of buying a wireless keyboard, but then I was advised that I should stick with the traditional keyboards because it easily breaks down. What interests me with it is that it somehow looks good because you will have less wire hanging at the back of your CPU. With regard to mouse, I know that it costs more than the wired mouse. I did ask and am also interested in buying one. For now, I will first settle in what I have due to budget constraints. When I do have the money, I will definitely buy one wireless mouse that is of good quality.

Earlier I used to work on a desktop machine at my parent's home.There the system has a mouse but not a wireless one.So when I used to work on it I used the mouse and the keyboard.As is the case with you I also used to have typos because the keys on the keyboard were not that nice.After marriage I am now living in another apartment.Hence I have bought a laptop and do my work on it.There is no mouse on my laptop and I use the keyboard and the finger space to do my work.Initially it used to be a bit inconvenient but once I got used to it I do not feel it too tough.In fact I am answering your question through my laptop only.
