Okay Ubuntu'ers i am in the market to get a wireless keyboard and mouse that is rechargeable (batteries are so annoying).

Can anyone point me to some good ones?

Logitech DiNovo Edge is the only keyboard i know of that is recharable, but its really expensive, besides replacing two AA batteries every few years is not that bad.

As for Mice, there are a bunch of high end mice form Logitech and Razer that are rechargable.

I'm looking for a full sized keyboard though.

Do batteries really last that long in them? I use my mouse and keyboard a lot as i do a lot of work and gaming on the pc. If so i will just get battery powered ones.

I got a older model, roughly 2 years older, and it has over 4 months of battery life. The new revisions have even better batterilife.

I use a Logitech M215 wireless mouse and it is ace, does exactly what it says on the tin. If you use decent AA they seem to last for ages. If you don't like spending out on batteries then just get some rechargeables and have a pair on standby.

I actually just went for Logitech M195 off ebuyer.com as it listed linux 2.6+ so i thought why not!
