    I am looking for a KVM switch to use a wireless key board and mouse with as well as video. The wireless is what I am not sure about. Can anyone give me some recommendations on a switch that will work with wireless? Also they are both USB so that would be preferable but I can get adapters for PS2 if I need to. I was looking at this one but one of the reviews says the wireless mouse dose not work. (I have the MX1000 like the person who reviewed.)

    Belkin has a nice one called "FLip" that supports wireless keyboard/mouse should be able to find it on the net for around 30-40 bucks

    I went with the Flip from newegg. I was hoping to spend under $30 but it is nice to have a separate switch from where you plug all of the wires into. Thanks for all of your help.
