I just bought a new wireless desktop set for my PC. Previously I was using the Logitech S510 but I then I am using it for my HTPC in my room so I need another set of keyboard and mouse for my main PC. I already have a wired Microsoft laser mouse already and I only need a wireless keyboard but then there’s not much only-keyboard set, it’s more likely a combo of keyboard and mouse.

Until now, I only favor the Logitech desktop set. I know Microsoft do have their wireless desktop set, I bought a set before and I don’t like the performance, lag and lack of media and shortcut key.

I am a budget user so I found this Logitech Pro 2400 Cordless Desktop for RM185. I only need the keyboard though and I’ll keep the mouse for emergency use.

Comparison of S510’s receiver and the Pro 2400’s receiver.

Keyboard is a little bit huge, I still prefer the size like the Apple Aluminium Keyboard. It runs via 2.4ghz wireless interface and it’s better than RF and can transmit further. The receiver is very tiny too, it’s like a thumb drive.

Lack Next and Previous button, I programmed the Next and Back Internet key for it.

So many shortcut keys, I only use the media key, and sleep button.

It has media key that I wanted, I use it to control my iTunes and volume control mostly.

One thing is that the mouse look the same like the mouse came with the Logitech S510, only that this runs on 2.4ghz and in full black color. I keep it aside though.

Typing on the keyboard feels good, they key very soft but not very quiet. IMO, Apple Aluminum Keyboard still have the best typing experience for me. This is a recommended buy but I still want to complain that they keyboard is a little bit big.
