    I recently purchased a new laptop and am looking into purchasing a mouse and some nice headphones for it. The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 6000 with Bluetooth capabilities.

    I use my notebook primarily for web browsing and word processing, but I also game occasionally and want those capabilities.

    I was hoping someone could recommend me some mouses to use, either bluetooth or regular wireless, and headphones as well, also bluetooth or regular wireless, preferably with a microphone. My price range is pretty open and I'm willing to pay a premium for the right product.

    The products I've looked at so far are the Logitech MX900 and the V400 for mouses.

    For the headphones I found the Motorola HT820 and so far really like it but looking for other options too.

    Thanks alot in advance.

    I prefer the Microsoft Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, it doesn't require the cradle like the Logitech. Sure you have to replace batteries, but that's not a big deal.

    Hmmm... I'm also looking for a bluetooth mouse and maybe headphones too, but I would like them to be able to charge via USB. Any suggestions?

    What about the logitech V270, I just saw that and it seems pretty good too. I just don't know what to choose.
