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.

Comparison of S510, Pro 2400 and Microsoft Wireless Desktop 700.

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.

TweetDeck is my favourite desktop Twitter client on my Windows 7 and they have just released a new update for it. I just updated my client and it is now the latest built, version 0.32.

Added a few new features like integrating with the new Twitter List feature, able to linked with LinkedIn, new Twitter’s Retweet function, Geolocation and more.

Update your TweetDeck now too! =) And do follow me on Twitter @nicholaschan.

Seesmic, another Twitter client for the desktop, previously available on the Mac, web browser as web application and the iPhone is now available on Windows! I’ve seen quite a number of people started using Seesmic once it has released to Windows and I gave it a try. It runs on AIR platform same as most of the Twitter client out there and it’s fast. My first impression was that it just seems like another TweetDeck with faster interface and Facebook. Used it for a couple days and today, I made a switch again, back to TweetDeck.

I actually just found out that TweetDeck has Facebook column too.

It’s not that Seesmic is not nice to use, it’s fast, like the columns but I prefer a black theme, so I went back to TweetDeck. =)

What’s your favourite desktop Twitter client by the way? Follow me on Twitter too!

Microsoft just released Windows 7 RC1 for another trial testing lately before officially releasing of this new OS. I saw some cute and cool wallpaper that is from the Windows 7 RC1, after some Googling, I found it. Just changed my new desktop wallpaper to one of the cartoonish colourful wallpaper which is from the Windows 7 RC1.

I can say that, the Windows 7 wallpaper is pretty.

I am liking my desktop wallpaper right now because I am not a Mac user faking to use a Mac OSX Tiger wallpaper. I’m here to share with you my very simple and clean Vista desktop.

I uses a dual monitor setup, a Dell 24″ connected via DVI and a Dell 17″ in vertical position connected via VGA cable to my old Nvidia 6800 graphic card. The second monitor serves like a widget monitor displaying some Yahoo! Widgets. I don’t use Windows Sidebar because I just don’t like it.

I did not turn on any icon because I access all my frequently use program via the small icon on startbar. It makes my desktop simple and clean.

I like dual monitor setup, I am not use to one screen right now, it’s like once you go dual, you can’t go back. I did not purposerly go and buy a second monitor, it’s actually an old monitor but now it serves as my secondary screen for productivity, extra desktop space and also widgets.
