    Hi guys,

    Could you please advise me on wireless desktop set for my inspiron6000. I've been thinking about:

    LX500
    http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t.../103-7817526-2927064?v=glance&s=pc&n=12879431
    or
    LX700
    http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t.../103-7817526-2927064?v=glance&s=pc&n=12879431

    LX700 seems to be much better but one guy in a review wrote that because mouse is only 400dpi it is very uncomfortable to use with big screens and I use WUXGA. But I also cannot find any information about dpi for XL500... ?


    or maybe I should go as cheap as possible - I'm not a gamer at all and will use it only for aplications.
    I found this:

    Logitech Cordless Internet Pro
    http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merc...e=M&Product_Code=220135&AFFIL=pricewatch&NR=1

    and refurb

    Logitech Cordless Desktop Express
    http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?in...en=Pricescan.com&cm_cat=Shopping&cm_ite=total

    Logitech Cordless Access DUO
    http://www.compuvest.com/Description.jsp;jsessionid=lr_sYKLfoP-lIDeSzq?iid=128613

    Logitech ???

    could you please comment, especially on LX ones?

    thx in advance

    I own the Logitech Optical Wireless KB+Mouse combo, I don't recall the name but it included the mx700 mouse which is awesome.

    I'd recommend looking into Microsoft's "Natural" keyboards if its not for gaming

    I've been seeing many complains about MS keys ergonomy plus their sets seam to be overpriced. I almost decided to buy LX700 but I still cannot find information on mouse dpi :( and also one guy was saying that he experiences time lag on his mouse sometimes. Is that possible with wireless devices?
