Has anyone here bought on of those 15 buck el'cheapo wireless kb&m combos from Wal-Mart?

I almost picked one up but I thought I would see any opinions on it, for 15 bucks why not? I have bought the generic wired keyboard for years with no troubles.

Yuck! For cheap stick with a Dell Bluetooth model.

I bought one called Micro something. Maybe Micro innovations. Lasted a month and 1/2 then it just went crazy. Died shortly there after. Lost the receipt. They are sitting in my closet. I guess I got what I paid for. It was a wireless KB and M combo.

The Micro is a step up on this one in price.

For the same price you can get a Logitech cordless keyboard and mouse on eBay.

I got a cheap Kensington from BestBuy once when I needed a keyboard quick. It was terrible. Very noticeable delay on the keys, sometimes keys were just ignored, etc.. Replaced it with a Logitech diNovo later on and everything has been fine.

Two of my roomates bought those and after about a month they took a dump.

Should have heard the curse words coming from them trying to play CS:S with the keyboard not responding.
