batteries are needed for infra red keyboard and mice...

you will get an infra red transmitter for devices, and must ensure a realtively good path (line of sight) between the transmitter and associated devices

you may want to look into bluetooth, which has a much larger range than infra red

I don't use a wireless keyboard but I do have a wireless mouse. Its a Logitech Mx700. This mouse was one the best purchases I have ever made. Its rechargable and the trasmitter base serves as the charger. The range is excellent. I can use it from across the room when I watch dvd's. You should look into it.

Fuck infrared devices. There virtually obsolete. Most companies sell RF(radio frequency, analog) devices. They use batteries.

Both my keyboard and mice ar RF. The batteries last me more than a year and I can control my PC from my bed for watching movies.

I've never seen bluetooth(a digital wireless standard) mice or keyboards(for PCs) and even doubt their existence.

krome that's been my experience. I'm sure it will vary by use though but I do use my PC daily.

I think the new rechargeable, optical mouse is the way to go these days.

I have the microsoft wireless mouse. The only thing I don't like about it is that the fucker eats up batteries like no tomorrow, I'm not sure if it's the batteries or the mouse. Other than that I like it.
