    I am waiting to recieve my XPS M1530 and was looking into getting a wireless mouse, cooling pad, and a set of speakers. I will be recieving a $70 Dell gift card for purchasing the 4 year warranty and was looking at their accessories. As I looked through those that would match my system color I came across these...

    http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/...oductdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&cs=19&sku=A1636884

    It comes with all 3 and is only $40 which sounds like a steal. I don't know how well these work and the Dell customer reviews don't say much other than a universal like for the speakers. So any input would be greatly appreciated. I did a search but nothing came on this site or any others. It's not even listed on Targus's Website.

    But if they are atleast decent for me to use, I would still have enough for a new case/bag, and could still have some left to put toward a new printer or something. Well thats my thought, sound good to anyone else? or should I stay away from these?

    Hey there! I looked at that package..and it's pretty cool...But it has a USB Optical Mouse with a dongle...Would you rather have a Bluetooth Wireless Mouse?? ;) :)

    Just a thought! Otherwise, I think its pretty neato! ;) :)

    In the end, it's what you really want...anyways ;) :)

    well I don't mind plugging in a dongle really, if its that good of a deal. Hell I guess for $40(Thats not coming out of pocket anyway) it wouldn't hurt to try them out.

    Thanks for the reply!! Plus if they stink I can atleast let others on here know so they don't suffer the same fate.

    But I agree and think I will like them. Since the price is so low my expectations shouldn't be to high, so I'm hoping I will be pleasantly surprised.
