Can anyone suggest a good wireless keyboard for CoX?

Wife needs to replace hers as she sometimes looses the ability to move with the current one.

Thanks!

I just got a microsoft wireless keyboard 6000 v3.0 and wireless laser mouse 6000 v2.0 combo. I believe it was like 70 bucks on the base, but here is one on newegg. It comes with a thumb-drive sized transmitter, pairs together right out of the box and both items have battery indicators on them. The software is ok also but nothing really fancy. There are 5 "favorite" buttons at the top in addition to standard media controls, "open browser" favorite, my documents favorite, sidebar favorite(Vista), calculator button, my pictures button, and zoom buttons right on the keyboard. Through the software, you can assign the mouse buttons as pretty much anything also, to include macros and more "open this program" buttons.

It's pretty good so far. The only gripe I have is the function buttons are a little small for my tastes but I am getting used to them. Also, the transmitter goes into a slot on the bottom of the mouse for transport. All-in-all, a good deal to me. Of course there is better, but this is one that I just picked up spur of the moment and is actually pretty good.
