Work are giving me a nice sum towards a new chair, computer and keyboard and mouse for my new office, go the first two sorted so looking for the latter. Not to bothered about wireless keyboard but wireless mouse is a must, want something fancy tbh as got around £70 to play with. Im a fan of logitech stuff, particulary these - http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard_mice_combos/devices/140&cl=gb,en

Logitech S520

I currently use the S510 keyboard with a different mouse, can't fault logitech at all.

I have this one:

Microsoft Wireless Optical 5000

I really like it, very ergonomic feel to it, with the basic two buttons and scroll wheel, along with two buttons on the side which are configurable for different options - I use one of mine as a back button, and the other is a digital zoom which zooms in on a box on the screen - I've found it quite useful for CAD drawings for uni etc.

I was thinking about the G15 but I don't like the look of it, I know it's a gaming keyboard so everything on it has a purpose but it looks cheap and bulky imo. I'm considering a G5 at the minute though.

On the Mouse...the on the fly Dpi change is awesome. When i scope in on someone with a sniper rifle on COD4, i lower the Dpi right down and then BANG!

Keyboard back lights make gaming in a dark room I'm still to use it's full potential though as i havent installed the software for it yet.

The backlight is a great idea. I doubt I would be bale to use it to it's full potential anyway, I have everything I need layed out around the direction keys on mine and it works a treat. I use the mouse for fire, toggle aim, throw nade and to cycle through weapons. It's only a normal mouse too, no extra buttons. I love the slimline design of the S510 I have, very much doubt I will change it.

S510

Go for the S510 in that case.
