 So far so great April 1, 2009

I just got this about 2 weeks ago and it is great so far. Set up was very fast and easy. The keyboard is light and the mouse is standard size but works great. The mouse even works on the carpet and sofa cusion, but obviously works best on a flat surface, so i use a hard cover book while sitting on the couch. I've tested it at about 30ft from the TV and it still works fine, i had one jump of the mouse across the screen. I've got it hooked up to my HP desktop computer, which in turn is hooked up to my 46" Samsung LCD TV. I would recommend this to people looking for a long range wireless keyboard to do some sofa web surfing.
[Scroll wheel broke] good range; small footprint January 16, 2009

Jan. 2010 UPDATE:
The mouse scroll wheel broke after about a year of normal use. The thin plastic scroll wheel axle broke. Fortunately, I was able to drill out the broken axle and insert a homemade one. I would now give it four stars instead of five.
I like this keyboard's relatively small footprint and thinness, and the fact that it is rectangular and not round and bulbous like so many others. And the mouse works great. So far, the combo works fine at 15 feet with the signal passing through a couch and would probably work fine from even farther away. So far, the batteries have lasted over three months and are still going strong. Also, the pencil holder tray is useful.
Exceptional Wireless Keyboard October 9, 2009

I've had this unit for about a month now, and I use it 4 - 5 times a week. It's wonderful. I'd tried another brand of wireless keyboard, but it only had a range of a couple of feet. This unit has a real long range. I only needed about 7 feet, but it's good for way beyond that. The keyboard is very sturdy. I've not experienced any problems typing. The mouse works fine on just about any surface I've tried it on (couch, TV tray, book cover, magazine, ...). I had no problem setting it up. Just followed the instructions and everything worked without a hitch. I'm very impressed with this wireless keyboard and mouse. I'd recommend it to anyone that needs more range than slew of other wireless keyboards out there will give you.

Great product! I'm able to sit at long range distances from the computer/TV and have no issues with the keyboard or mouse. Haven't missed any movements or clicks of the mouse or button presses on the keyboard.
