<B>The Mouse</B>:
<center>
</center>
You can reference my previous MX700 review, because the mouse is exactly the same. I will go over some of the finer points of the mouse regardless. It is not for left handed people. It is silver and black. The buttons on the entire mouse are well positioned, and I really started to use the up and down buttons. These are great. The position of the back and forward button are key as well. They are positioned perfectly.
I also like how the whole top is one piece, there is not going to be a button depreciation problem here (like my intellimouse explorer).

I actually forgot to show you the bottom of the mouse in the last review. You'll see the connect button here as well as the contacts for the charger.
<B>The Keyboard</B>:
<center>
</center>
This is a horrible shot for some reason. I don't know why it came out so bad. Anyway, you can reference my Logitech Elite Duo review for this keyboard anyway. There are subtle differences anyway.
For the first, the greys are now Silver and just look nicer. The second, the keys are quieter than the other keyboard, but it is still responsive.
There are no indicator lights on the keyboard, but this is a good thing so to not waste an ounce of power lighting a pretty useless light. Since they are on the base station, it is all good anyway.

</center>
The extra buttons on the keyboard. You'd be surprised, but I like them. I use the volume more than anything. The scroll wheel on the left side...
<center>
</center>
... Is pretty useless for me. It basically acts as an up down on the keyboard, it isn't a normal scrolly type thing (like the mouse wheel).
<center>
</center>
The bottom of the keyboard. Nothing much to say really, you've got the batteries and the connect button. And some warnings and acknowledgements.
The spacing of the keys has not changed. Like I said before, the keys are quieter, and it is noticeable if you are switching keyboards. You'll get used to it fast. I actually use both sets of keyboards.
<B>Testing</B>:
What can I say, the keyboard and the mouse I have used before. Both are great, both were great by themselves and like I said before, the combination is perfect. I've been using this keyboard and mouse combo for the past three weeks and there has not been a problem I can think of or have noticed. The mouse lasts very long. I left it overnight and even while I was at work and it stilled had a good amount of charge left. The keyboard will last a few months before the batteries need to be replaced. Good work Logitech.
<B>Conclusion</B>:
<a href="http://ase.dealtime.com/dt-app/SE/KW-logitech%20mx%20duo/FD-0/linkin_id-3002062/NS-1/GS.html">For around $80, you can have this combo</a>. It is a worthwhile addition to the MX700 mouse and I know that if you buy this combo, you will kiss yourself. It is absolutely the best combination of keyboard and mouse I have ever seen, period.
