Features
Wireless Freedom: Experience the convenience of wireless keyboards and mouse products, and say good-bye to clutter.
Optical Technology: Optical technology refers to the use of an optical sensor to track mouse movement, rather than the traditional use of mechanical parts. As a result, optical mouse products work on most surfaces and offer you better durability, increased speed and accuracy, and consistent performance.
Ergonomic Design: Every Microsoft hardware product has met the company’s rigorous testing requirements for unparalleled comfort and performance. Ergonomic design is important for more than productivity—how you type, point, and click can also affect your long-term health.
Multimedia Center: Enjoy easy access to your favorite music, video clips, and media programs with the press of a key.
Forward and Back Internet Buttons: Maneuver between Web pages without clicking the toolbar, or reassign these buttons to perform a common command or keystroke.

The wireless keyboard and mouse are working well for me. I have had one for a year and bought another one for my new computer. The only problem has been a false low battery notice. I ignore the notice and it's gone on the next boot-up.
Great quality for the money

It's a good product. Every now and then my computer will tell me the signal to the keyboard or mouse is low, but when I check its 100%. The mouse is a little heavy, but very accurate. Quality of the keys is far better than my previous e-machines and dell keyboards (6years old).

I use this product five days a week for a least 5 hours at work. I have purchased several Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 1000 for our company majority work without any problem. I also plan to purchase more. They respond well, great short cuts and work great in an office enviorment. I am not a fan of the 800 pound gorilla (Microsoft) but when somthing works well I am on board.
Terrible battery life

Both the mouse and the keyboard go through batteries within 5 days. The keyboard and mouse are as good as any I have ever used, it's just that the batteries ( fresh alkalines go dead unless I remove them after I'm done, which is a pain .
