    Bounce... Even I would like to buy one...

    So far .. my consideration is Microsofts Wireless Entertainment Desktop 7000 which comes at $145 with a rechargable mouse...

    Ahh.. a good option..

    Same one form dell after considering EPP and TAX costs me for $127.9 with 3 - 4 business day shipping.

    Same form Amazon is at $124.95, 4 - 5 business dasy for shipping another 4 - 5 business day for delivery....

    in that case I'll be happy to settle it from DELL

    Yeah, its a good combo deal...and that mouse is pretty sweet :)
    Also, if you pay with Dell DPA...you can save that addtional 3 or 4% savings! ;)

    I ended up getting the logitech MX 5500, it works well. Would be nice if the keys were backilit, but you can't have everything I guess

    Then you should've opted for MS Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 if you want bluetooth keyboard with backlit keys. :D
