Logitech DiNovo Media Desktop
Logitech's new Bluetooth-enabled DiNovo Media Desktop--a suite of high-end input devices--runs a jaw-dropping $250. But if you want the all-around finest and most elegant desktop experience, it's the clear choice. If you're simply looking for a good mouse and keyboard set, search for less-expensive alternatives.

Logitech Cordless Desktop MX for Bluetooth
This Bluetooth-enabled keyboard and mouse combo doesn't have the design appeal of its more expensive brother, the DiNovo. However, it's arguably more functional for day-to-day use, with a bevy of buttons and a scrollwheel built directly into the keyboard. The accompanying mouse is a silver-and-gray version of the excellent new MX900.

Kensington Comfort Type Wireless Optical Desktop
Kensington's wireless desktop set lacks some of the luxuries of Microsoft's unit, such as a built-in wrist pad and a high-end, five-button mouse (the Kensington mouse is a rather flimsy-feeling three-button affair). However, it costs only half as much and has a uniquely stylish black-on-silver design, making it a suitable desktop set for those who want wireless on a budget.

Ideazon Zboard
There aren't many products that redefine the keyboard, but Ideazon's Zboard does just that, allowing users to remove the entire keyboard interface and replace it with a variety of application-specific boards. This keyboard system has exciting possibilities for gamers and application trainees, but advanced users will probably find the inlays annoying to type on.

FrogPad USB keyboard
Like no keyboard you've seen before, the FrogPad is designed for one-handed typing and has just 20 keys--with all the functionality of a traditional board. Hence, it takes somes relearning to type on it. Small enough to slip into your pocketbook or backpack, the FrogPad saves desktop space and is ergonomic to boot. A Bluetooth version is imminent.
