Logitech Cordless Elite Duo
RRP: AU$249.95
The Good: The Cordless Elite Duo matches up the exemplary Logitech Elite keyboard with a Cordless MouseMan optical. We've expounded on the good points of the Elite Keyboard elsewhere; the MouseMan is a solid and nicely shaped mouse with an additional base button that can be configured to the user's preferences.
The Bad: Using both requires at least one PS/2 port and one USB; for some reason you can't go fully USB with this kit. In our testing, the MouseMan optical was very twitchy on even totally plain surfaces, and we found the extra button a little tricky to accurately hit all the time. The Caps, Scroll and Num Lock keys can only be visually toggled onscreen.
The Verdict: With a relatively high asking price, the Cordless Elite Duo doesn't stack all that well up against the competition. Unless you particularly need a wireless keyboard, we'd match the wired Elite keyboard up with a better wireless mouse.
