Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 700

The Wireless Optical Desktop 700 by Microsoft is a basic package providing a standard computer keyboard and mouse. It has a USB interface which means it comes with a receiver that you need to plug into a USB port on your computer and place in direct sight of the input devices. The keyboard uses two AA batteries and the mouse uses two AAA batteries and both items are black in color. The wireless keyboard in this set is compact in size to conserve space and make it easier to handle, and it has media keys to control things like sound volume and to open up commonly used programs. The wireless mouse uses an optical sensor for enhanced precision and it can be used in either your left or right hand. It also has a scroll wheel to make surfing the web or browsing long documents a breeze. This bundle is sold in a big red retail box or sometimes in plain brown OEM boxes, but either way its the same items inside. Retail price is normally $39.99.

    Eats batteries on the mouse. Keyboard is o.k., somewhat slower than most, Can not Judge other Wireless combos. Best Wireless mouse is the MS 3000, first version. One AA Battery last for months. Beats my Logitech Hands down. Been a Logitech fan for years. They still have the best software. Would like to try Bluetooh from any Manufacturer. Blue Tooth Works well with my “SALE PHONE”

    Scroll wheel is the first to go in this. Mouse lasts for a very small time. Look for other options.
