I've just had to take a wireless keyboard back to Maplins. I hate the things.
The biggest problem with wireless keyboards is that they never work at the speed that you type. They often leave out letters which is a loody pin in the ase.
Wireless keyboards
And it's totally embarrassing when you trip over the wireless's.
Only ever had a wireless mouse. Unfortunately it seems to be impossible to get a non-optical wireless mouse now. The bastards. 
Wtf is optical anyway? I used the touch pad on my laptop and a good ole fashioned bally mouse on my Comp.
It has a laser-like 'eye' on the bottom which detects movement. Not good unless you have a plain, flat surface.
Like a mouse mat?
Who off roads with a mouse anyway?
Wait a minute so you have to use a plain surface without any pattern, is that what you're saying?

Is it painfull?
Sounds like Action Man.
Yes, like a mouse mat. And even then not all will be plain enough.
So who here actually uses a mouse mat anyway?
I do, i have a Havant & waterlooville one with a gel, wrist support, i know, impressive, but wait there is more, it came with a special brush and even has a waterproof coating, now you may feel jealous.
I've got one with a ladybird on it.
