I need some advice 🙂 I need to get a new mouse for my laptop, and I’ve needed a new keyboard for months. Currently both are Microsoft products, which I’ve been happy with. However I would venture into logitech land with a good recommendation. The keyboard I have is wired, the mouse is optical.

The question is, do I go for a bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo or just stick with the optical? I’ve noticed there are a lot more optical sets out there than bluetooth, I’m not sure why though. I’ve also noticed the bluetooth sets haven’t often been updated since they were released (several years ago).

  1. Dustin, You should stick with the optical mouse and get a wireless keyboard. Thats what I have and I just love it. Never heard of the Bluething before. Its not a southern thing LOL. Bye for now

  2. Bluetooth uses a built in receiver in the laptop 🙂 That is the main difference. For the optical mouse and keyboard you have to attach a little round receiver. (for my mouse it’s a little USB stick)

  3. I like my bluetooth mouse but it takes some getting used to. It can be really sensative to movements.

  4. I’m a Mac person, so I’m not sure how much I can help. I do love my Bluetooth mouse and I have heard many good things about using it with a PC. Never had any problems with it. Like DavidMo says though, it can be sensitive until you get used to it. That didn’t take me long though. It really is a cool little gadget that I would personally not do without!
