Microsoft Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000

The Microsoft Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000 is a wireless keyboard/mouse set released in August 2009 in preparation for the launch of the Windows 7 operating system. It features an ergonomically designed wireless keyboard and a wireless BlueTrack mouse. Both devices rely on 2.4GHz wireless technology to transmit to an included USB transceiver within a range of up to 30’. The keyboard is especially built for Windows 7, as it works with the new Taskbar Favorites feature — whereby open applications can be mapped directly to the keyboard. As for the mouse, it utilizes Microsoft’s proprietary BlueTrack technology, which they claim allows the mouse to work on nearly any type of surface, including airport carpet and even park benches.
