    I have a Velocity Micro-branded mouse and keyboard from creative I could sell you for like $30 shipped, once I get back from the holidays
    They both came bundled with the velocity-micro case I purchased 2 weeks ago, and both were brand new w/ driver cds. Mouse comes with a black and blue cover instead of red/green/pinkish ones that the retail ones come with..


    quick webcam-uppies.. the mouse light isn't as blindingly bright as it looks in the picture.. but to be fair, the keyboard doesn't get all that bright either.. (same as my roommate's saitek)

    and yes.. that's my thumb on the print-screen button -_-
