Okay, but buy batteries.

I've had this keyboard and mouse for a long time and while they work great, I've had issues with mouse battery life and keyboard letters. I use my computer keyboard a lot and while my previous keyboard stopped working before the letters faded, the letters on this one faded within a week. I don't really have to look at the letters to know which button to press, but you'd think they'd give them a bit more, for lack of a better term, endurance. Obviously, this has nothing to do with the excellent keyboard capabilities. In the months I've had it, I've had to change the batteries once. Unlike many other keyboards I've used, typing is very pleasant, and it's really comfortable since there aren't a lot of wires tangling all over the place. With a mouse, however, it's a different story. Due to the fact that it's a laser mouse, the battery life is terrible. I would say I used 8-10 batteries in the first month of use. So instead of spending so much on batteries, I went down the rechargeable battery route. Buy two sets of batteries and a charger and you're good to go. The mouse is a bit fiddly, and if you want fast-paced point-and-click gaming or need to hold the mouse buttons down for long periods of time, I'd recommend going the more expensive route. This set has exactly what I need. Pros and Cons Overall: Pros: Comfortable keyboard, good keyboard battery life. Suitable for basic computer use. Good price. No wires. Keyboard: Sony quick charger with 4 x AA NiMH batteries Sony 2500 mAh AA batteries x 4
