Does anyone own a wireless keyboard/mouse combo?

I'm thinking of getting one. How often do you have to replace the battery, or recharge these items?

I use rechargeables and have to replace the mouse about once every 2 months, and the keyboard quarterly or longer. Severe battery drain has never really been an issue. I've been using a Logitech set for the last 2 years or so.

I've got a Logitech MX Laser mouse with a lithiom ion battery. I usually charge it once a month. Its a great mouse and I recommend it.

if I am not mistaken there are two types; IR and RF (infra-red and radio frequency). RF has much greater range & flexibility in placement.
You can switch off, to reduce the battery drain, when not in use.
Use Ni-MH or Lithium-Ion if u want long-lasting rechargeables.

Well, I bought a Microsoft Wireless Desktop for 70,000 at Kim's Club in Bundang. Probably not the cheapest I could buy it for, but they seemed to be the only ones around here who had it for a PS/2 port.
