We have seen a lot of wireless keyboard and mouse combos like Adesso, IBM and many others. We were really impressed with the Logitech K400 wireless touch keyboard because it is lightweight, compact and performs well.

The K400 wireless touch keyboard comes with a USB unifying receiver, USB extender, comes with two AA batteries and the getting started instructions. The K400 wireless touch keyboard is a lot smaller than an average sized laptop keyboard which has a built-in touchpad with left and right click buttons. Also has another left click button at the top left corner of the keyboard, media hot keys, and an on/off switch to conserve the batteries.

These are the things we liked about the keyboard:
– Lightweight
– Compact
– Easy to store, space-saving
– Compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac with some limitations
– Touchpad included, no need for a seperate mouse
– Extra left click button
– Plug and play
– Tiny USB unifying receiver can connect up to six compatible unifying wireless devices
– Low-profile keys
– Media hot keys
– Batteries included
– On/off switch
– 2 year warranty
– Up to 12 month battery life depending on usage
– Wireless range up to 33 feat
– Good price of $34.99 from Newegg.com

The things we disliked about the keyboard:
– No low battery indicator
– Flimsy and fragile
– No Apple Mac drivers
– No 3 or 4 finger swipe commands for Mac computers
– Keyboard size smaller than an average laptop keyboard.

Over all, it’s a great keyboard to own especially if your using it for entertainment purposes.

Here is our video review. Enjoy!

To limit any malware, spyware and or virus infections, take precautions when accessing the internet via you’re browser, e-mail or other avenues. We are starting to see an unusual high volume of clients getting infected within the last couple of weeks with all types of malware infections which can cause a variety of problems, such as key loggers, browser hijacking, constant advertisement bombardment, hidden\deletion of files or install other malicious programming code.

Here are some precautions you can take:

– Do not click on links in your e-mail or websites you are not familiar or not sure about. When you download files, make sure you know what your downloading and installing. Know who is sending you e-mail and do not open if your not familiar with the person or e-mail.

– Make sure you have anti-virus/anti-malware/anti-spyware software installed on your computer and make sure the definitions are updated. Run daily or weekly scans. If you cannot run updates and automatic scans, especially if you are using “free” anti-malware/spyware software, manually update, run the scans and remove infections if found.

– Install a good firewall, like “free” ZoneAlarm or just customize the built-in firewall that Microsoft XP, Vista or 7 came with.

– Make sure you are installing updates for Java, Adobe Flash, Reader and Shockwave when you get the pop-up messages, don’t ignore them.

– If you have kids, monitor their surfing habits. Kids like to play online games and a lot of online gaming sites get infected and in return infect your computer. This even pertains to other certain sites like Youtube.com, since Youtube video’s use Adobe Flash. Setup limited access account profiles for your kids so they do not start downloading infected programs. Also, set limitations for them on the web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Safari) so they won’t be going to bad and or infected sites.

1.) Install one of the many free malware scanners like Malwarebytes, these often come with an anti-virus package that will stop your computer becoming infected in the future.

2.) Always keep your antivirus and malware removal software updated. Most of the software packages have free updates via the internet. Most of the time with free malware software you have to update manually. Also make sure to update Java, Adobe or other like software.

3.) Never download anything that looks suspicious. Malware could come as email attachments or come packaged with legitimate software, be sure to scan everything with antivirus and malware scanners before you install anything, it’s often too late once you have clicked install.

4.) Look at the check boxes before you install anything. A lot of free software packages often have extra things they install whilst installing themselves. These are usually tool bars or some other kind of spyware.

5.) Only download from reputable sources. The Internet is like a jungle and there is many a suspicious internet marketers ready to try and force their sales page on you. Only download from trusted sources or from people who you know and trust.
