Bluetooth Keyboards and Mice Suck
When I got my G5 (back whenever they were brand
new, about a year ago), I paid extra money for the bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
I don't know what I was thinking.
My
keyboard is on my desk. The wire never bothered me. Now it eats batteries.
It's pretty annoying to need to type a note and instead have to search for 4
good AAs. What's more, every once in a while, the networking hiccups, and my
typing gets typed out of order. That's not
acceptable.
The mouse was even worse --
but I quickly replaced it with a wired one with two buttons and a scroll wheel.
There was a teeny-tiny lag in mouse movement, and a barely-perceptible
granularity in its movement. I'm incredibly fussy about my mouse, so these tiny
problems loomed huge.
Stick to
wires.
