Great keyboard, weak mouse
I got this for the shape of the keyboard and t he fact that it was very slim both vertically and in depth. They keys feel nice and responsive and it is very easy to fit on even a cluttered desk. However the mouse is basically unusable, with a sticky wheel and only two buttons and an uncomfortable shape. For occasional use it would be alright, but not as a working mouse. Luckily I had a nice mouse already and all I really wanted was the keyboard, so it worked out for me.

Pretty slick products
This pair replaces the keyboard that came standard with a Dell desktop, and a Logitech wireless mouse that was new in 2002 that eats batteries. Both are great improvements. The keys are standard sized and type crisply. The mouse is super-sensitive, as another reviewer mentioned, and I love it. I hope the battery gobbling days are gone. I cannot believe the quality for the modest price for the pair. Installation instructions were easy to follow, and the process took about ten minutes.

Good value, sleek form factor, works with Ubuntu/Crunchbang 9.04
I hemmed and hawed between this, the HP Wireless Elite Keyboard and Mouse, the Logitech Wireless Desktop MK 300, and the IOGear Multimedia Keyboard with Laser Trackball and Scroll Wheel, 2.4GHz Wireless GKM561R (Black). I went with this because it was cheaper than the HP set, sleeker than the Logitech set, and had a number pad and separate mouse, unlike the IOGEAR set. I haven't been disappointed. The mouse works well and the keyboard keys feel nice and responsive, the range is solid, keystrokes never get dropped, the battery life has been good for the few weeks I've owned this set, and the set works out-of-the-box on both Windows XP and Ubuntu Linux 9.04 without the included software. Extras like that software are the only flaws, really; I use the product with a monitor to make a desktop environment for my Asus Eee 1000HE running Windows XP, and the software doesn't enable functionality on the media keys. All it did was add a little window to the corner of the screen as a virtual indicator of when caps/number/shift lock are on/off, which I just close anyway because the stock Asus overlay already has a pop-up for that. I get the feeling that the extra keys were specifically meant for Windows Media Center, or another program that I never run. In Windows, the program launcher keys do work - they launch Windows Media Player, My Computer, and Calculator - but the extra functions, such as skip/play/pause and volume, do not, even in Windows Media Player.

Overall, really, the lack of functionality on gimmicky extra keys is a very small gripe; the keyboard and mouse have both been great, especially for the price. The mouse and keyboard work pretty well as media center controls from the couch using the mouse against pillows, the armrest, etc., although juggling both can be a little awkward. Because I use these mostly as desktop peripherals, I think this set works better for me than the IOGEAR set would have; however, if I were using primarily from a couch, I'd give the IOGEAR set a lot more consideration, mostly since I wouldn't have to deal with both devices separately.

slimmmm
this is a great keyboard. slim and elegant. the mouse is quite sensitive which i kinda dont like but doesnt bother me. some people may enjoy this feature.

Too "Flat" For Me
I tried this keyboard out and it is just not conformed enough for me. I had a hard time hitting the keys properly thus making my typing harder than normal. It greatly reduced my speed and it is something that just doesn't work well with me.
