The sleek Cordless Desktop EX 110 makes it incredibly easy and affordable to go cordless, in style. Quick and simple to set up, keyboard and mouse perform as reliably as any corded product. An 800-dpi optical mouse responds instantly, tracks precisely, and provides maximum freedom. One-touch media controls make music or video playback easier - and more fun. Launch your Internet home page, email, or onscreen calculator - all from the keyboard. Plus, navigate the web or close your browser with convenient left-hand buttons. Keyboard is spill-resistant too. It's a superb combination of quality, value, comfort, and great looks.

Summary: Works great under Linux Ubuntu
Comment: I've had this now for over a year and it works nice. I use it under Linux platform and it has not failed me. I don't get the 'Battery' warning though but that's because it's under Linux.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Disappointing Construction
Comment: Flimsy, likely fragile, and has rattles inside. I don't expect it to last very long. Also, the finish of the keys are too reflective of light. The glare is undesirable. Also, the key action lacks a solid, positive feel.

Summary: Great Product
Comment: I love this keyboard / mouse combo so much I bought two. The wireless works great, even on a Linux system. I love the extra buttons placed conveniently where you can use them often. For example, I love the browser back button one the left hand side for quick return when surfing the web (and yes it works in Linux as well). Or, I often use the calculator key or the sound controls including the mute buttons. Over-all I highly recommend this product.

Summary: Great Keyboard!
Comment: I bought this keyboard for my mother last Christmas and it has been really great. It has a lot of nice features and we have had no complaints at all. The Amazon price was much less that any of the local stores were charging. We are very happy that we purchased this!

Summary: Great mouse and keyboard, but terrible battery life and annoying software
Comment: This wireless keyboard and mouse set are average at best. The mouse and keyboard themselves are fine. They are of decent quality, made of your typical black plastic. The mouse is a good size for my hand, and the keyboard is serviceable, if a bit noisy compared to others I've had in the past. Where the EX110 fails are battery life and very annoying software.
The batteries in the mouse seem to go bad literally every month. When they are low, the software that allows you to use the custom buttons on the keyboard begins to give notices that pop up from your system tray in XP: "Warning, your mouse's battery's are critical!" Close the message, and it will reappear an hour later! It will do this for WEEKS. The only way to stop it is either replace the batteries or manually shut down the Logitech software which then prevents you from being able to use the custom buttons. Logitech should have enabled the user to choose if they wish to receive these focus stealing messages or not.
Another problem is that the wireless connection is spotty at best. I have the transponder sitting on my desk, no more than a foot and a half away from both the mouse and keyboard, and yet I consistently experience disconnections. This is really frustrating. I've tried moving things around, but it has not helped that much.
Pros:
Inexpensive wireless set
Customizable buttons are useful, as are the sound control buttons that are on the top of the keyboard. They allow you to advance or reverse tracks, stop or pause play, and adjust the volume. This has got to be my favorite feature, although almost all keyboards have these keys now.
Cons:
Poor battery life for the mouse.
Annoying software that gives you repetitive messages when the batteries of the mouse run low.
Limited signal strength for wireless connectivity
Noisy keyboard tray
There are a lot better wireless mouse/keyboard options out there. Buy something else if you think the issues I've described will bother you as well.
