Wireless Keyboards

So, you may know that I've been working on building my own new computer with the extremely limited budget that I have. I've been looking on NewEgg.com for most of my items because of their price and how much I have trusted them throughout the years.

Other than the DVD burner that I purchased already because of an amazing deal, I've been looking for items that I can use on my current computer so I can get as much use out of them as possible. To this extent, I have been looking for rechargeable keyboard/mouse sets. I never realized exactly how difficult it is to find a rechargeable keyboard. Rechargeable Mice are a dime a dozen.

Spencer has been helping me look for some while at work and here are a few possible candidates:

Microsoft's Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 - Although I don't really show any love towards Microsoft, I have heard that their wireless equipment is pretty decent. Well, this keyboard and mouse set better be for a price of $300.

Logitech diNovo Edge - Logitech has their own version of the wireless entertainment desktop, but at $180 without a mouse, it just doesn't seem worth it.

I guess what I'll probably do is just get a regular wireless keyboard and mouse and use some rechargeable AA's that I have. I don't really feel quite as enviromentally friendly, but under a limited budget, you can't be picky.
