Well this time you can't say, "Ah man...too much $$$ for me...dang it."

I waited up for a refurbished keyboard and mouse............yawn!

I know some of you have this wireless keyboard setup. Is it worth having? What are the good qualities, or the bad, in your experience?

NoDoze

I told all my friends to visit woot.com at 1 am tonight because I smelled a great woot coming... and you're selling a used keyboard?

there woots are boring. how many people need another keyboard. if you didn't have one you couldn order one!

Isn't this the same KB+Mouse wireless combo that Logitech gave out 30k of a couple years back?

I use this keyboard with my modded x-box, and love it. Great feel.

I have one of these already. They're pretty nice.

Rechargeable NiMHs are your friend.

ive owned one for over a year,and have had MAJOR problems with it, often when i reboot CERTAIN KEYS stop working, and my CAPS LOCK has been dead for about 8 months, the wireless mouse ate batteries like a kid in a candy store, so i switched back to an old mouse

the price is AWESOME, but with my problems id un-reccommend it, logitech never was able to awnser any questions to help me solve my problems, and due to loss of receipt ive been stuck with a doody keyboard for a year, but its great for writing essays in bed

Happy days are here again,, It's refurbished!!!!!!!!!
Yes bring on the refurbished items.....
After all Christmas is around the corner......

looks like a good woot to me i ll take one

I own this very wireless desktop and i recomend not buying it. It eats through batteries and it doesn't stay connected very well. Not to mention the mouse is too small and light. Since the wireless reciever is on a cable it kind of makes this being wireless pointless because you still have the wires everywhere.

Perfect! I wanted a wirless setup for $20 or less! Hurray woot!!!!

two different sites, selling two different cordless desktop keyboard and optical mouse sets.

definitely worth staying up for.

somebody shoot me.

Just like the one I've been using for a couple of years. Both eagerly eat AA batts, too bad I can't turn 'em off when I'm away. (Drained my rechargeables like crazy!)

That being said, think I'll get one for the office.

Discussion on the pros & cons please. I need a new wireless keyboard but also need durbility. Yeah at this price they are practically disposable - but who wants to hassle with that. Is this one worth it or will I kill it in a month?

I'll take a few of those... resell... back ups... never know when you need another mouse and keyboard... especially at that price. I have wireless desktop by microsoft and the mouse died pretty quickly due to a soup spill... woops.. :-) so now i have the logitech media mouse, which i LOVE! but my orders are placed :-)

Woot! Whatever happened to the remote controlled dinosaurs? I need one for Christmas. Not one of these refurbshed cordless keyboards. I'm already using a cordless keyboard that REALLY is cordless. It's called a USB receiver...no cords. This thing has a cord, just not connected to the keyboard. Hmmm false advertising? Misnomer? Useless Woot!? Tune in tomorrow.

Great x-mas present for the mom and pop. I'm in for one!

i think the deal on the 12am box is a little better. Plus its brand new out of the mid night box.

First woot purchase here.. hope its not the last!

Found these refurbished at Pricegrabber Just Deals for 21.95 shipped.
Guess I will wait for the next deal. Goodnight.

OOPS, ignore this, it was a different model.

Thanks for useful post.

Does anyone else remember a few years back when logitech gave away a few thousand of these for free? I'm still using the original batteries that came with the keyboard. I've upgraded the mouse to an MX1000 however. This is worth the money just for the wireless keyboard (if you're looking for one that is)

Batteries will last about 2-3 months depending on usage. My BT wireless KB lasted 6 months.

New this stuff retails for 50 but refurb? Just like the description said, unhygeinic things happen oer keyboards. I don't need anyone's fluid on my keyboard, no matter ho refurbished it is thanks.

i had this for about 2 months and it worked fine. after that it started going through batteries like water

WHat is the wireless mode? Infrared? RF?

When we lack wires, some other means are utilized to allow the computer to communicate with the keyboard and mouse. Simply put, Magic!

Yep, youre right. Well i dont need one either way.

does the mouse require batteries?

Why do people get so damn excited that they are on the fist page?
Woop-de-friggin-do!!
"First page!"
I've seen it too much and it gives me a damn head ache!

Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.

I justbought one of these. referb, yeah, but you can't beat the price. I spilled beer on my current one and it doesn't work the same.

i hear these make nice rama-hana-kwanz-mas gifts.

hmmmmmmm - I bet they don't last - this is a GOOD BUY if you ask me.

I have one already but since I have 2 other desktop systems at home I might just get a couple more. The batteries last a long time on these and they have very decent range.

I think I paid $45 or $50 for mine from newegg a few years ago and have since moved mine to my latest PC - used to play Half Life using it as well with very good results.

not mac compatible... great deal though. Saw another refub version for $45 bucks. wireless mouse batteries go quick, too...

not too bad of a price. Description made me lose my midnight craving though.

A couple of notes since I have seen some Q's

This is an RF device - not IR - no line of sight needed.

Note that the KB connector is a PS2 type - newer computers are coming without PSs connectors (USB Keyboards).

I think the KB takes 4 AA batteries and the mouse takes 2 AA's - they will last a minimum of a couple of months (I think mine usually last 6 months but I don't use the system every day).

If I only didn't just get one in my Beverage of Choice today. Nice set though.

Did you get this in the Beverage of Choice from the last Woot off? I ordered 3 BOCs but haven't gotten them yet.
