If a wireless keyboard is what you want; you need bluetooth so you don't have to worry about a little thing called range. Take my word for it, I already wasted my money; don't do the same!

Calling the Tech Support number requires your name, phone number, put on hold, then told to re-install drivers, and finally told it is defective and to go exchange it... nice. <br />$200 for this product is incredibly overpriced. <br />P.S. Rocketfish is related to Dynex and Best Buy. Rating: 1 / 5 Beware, many people have no mouse wheel scrolling. There is no support for this on their website.

$200 for this product is incredibly overpriced.

There are so many problems with this keyboard-mouse combo I can't even remember them all anymore. <br /> <br />First, it took way too long to get it working, thanks in no part to Rocketfish's negative infinity technical support help. They must have forgot the world is moving to 64-bit systems, but it was the same story with my Vista 32-bit system too. <br /> <br />Second, the mouse disconnects randomly about once every 90 minutes, which is only annoying if you want to use things like the internet, excel, word, or any other useful thing for which the computer was designed. <br /> <br />Third, I'm happy that the rubber side pads are already coming off, leaving a sticky mess every time I use the mouse. <br /> <br />Fourth, I am now at the point of heavily clicking since a light click no longer registers, an ergonomic catastrophe in waiting. <br /> <br />etc... <br /> <br />Hope you get the point, do not buy this combo, in fact, do not buy Rocketfish, it is a bunch of overpriced low budget poorly designed crap with a nice facade. I am sure that I will never buy Rocketfish for the rest of my life, and will do my utmost to steer every person I randomly encounter in the street away from them as well.

First, it took way too long to get it working, thanks in no part to Rocketfish’s negative infinity technical support help. They must have forgot the world is moving to 64-bit systems, but it was the same story with my Vista 32-bit system too.

Second, the mouse disconnects randomly about once every 90 minutes, which is only annoying if you want to use things like the internet, excel, word, or any other useful thing for which the computer was designed.

Third, I’m happy that the rubber side pads are already coming off, leaving a sticky mess every time I use the mouse.

Fourth, I am now at the point of heavily clicking since a light click no longer registers, an ergonomic catastrophe in waiting.

etc…

Hope you get the point, do not buy this combo, in fact, do not buy Rocketfish, it is a bunch of overpriced low budget poorly designed crap with a nice facade. I am sure that I will never buy Rocketfish for the rest of my life, and will do my utmost to steer every person I randomly encounter in the street away from them as well.

Chadwick Fri, 22 Jan 2010 14:48:02 +0000 http://micekeyboards.com/?p=153#comment-208 I was curious if anyone who has purchased this combo if the multimedia buttons on the mouse (play, stop, etc) can be re-programmed for other uses within windows, as well as games. <br /> <br /> <br />It seems like a great buy, but only if I can utilize the buttons in games (for item selection, etc) my current corded mouse allows me to program the click-able scroll wheel, and 2 addition keys on the thumb side, and I dont want to lose that functionality with this mouse. <br /> <br />thanks in advance Rating: 1 / 5 I was curious if anyone who has purchased this combo if the multimedia buttons on the mouse (play, stop, etc) can be re-programmed for other uses within windows, as well as games.

It seems like a great buy, but only if I can utilize the buttons in games (for item selection, etc) my current corded mouse allows me to program the click-able scroll wheel, and 2 addition keys on the thumb side, and I dont want to lose that functionality with this mouse.

thanks in advance
