I purchased a Gyration for my wife's computer, but returned it just last night 
and bought the much cheaper (by half) Logitech.

Reason?  The mouse consistently stopped working.  After being idle for some 
time, move the mouse and get no response on the computer.  No problems with the 
keyboard.  I also didn't like the fact that the receiver has only a USB 
connector for both KB and mouse (part of the lockup problem?).

The replacement Logitech installed in seconds and worked perfectly.

Howdy...

Has anyone had any experience with these?

I've got an old Logitech wireless mouse that doesn't seem 
to have any problems between the radio and the mouse.

I'm looking at a Gyration wireless mouse/keyboard 
combo...it's apparently more powerfull than the Logitech, 
as it has a 30' range compared to 5' on the Logitech.  The 
Gyration operates on 49 Mhz.

Any info about this combo or any others, or what to stay 
away from would be appreciated.
