Lok3sh Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 Hey guys!So I have a wireless mouse from Logitech with the nano reciever. Its so convenient, I leave it plugged into my laptop at all times and forget that its even there! And now I need a wireless keyboard. Do you guys know weather I could use the same receiver to work with a logitech keyboard? I want just one nano reciever, and both the keyboard and mouse to work on it. Or if you guys know of any keyboard+mouse combo that uses one nano reciever for both that would be cool too!Nothing too expensive though, I don't have a very big budget.Thanks!

-pops- Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 My laptop has a built-in keyboard but, that aside, have you searched the product range of the manufacturer of your current device? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I wanted a nice wireless mouse + keyboard combo which would both work with the same nano reciever. I know that logitech has something called a unified receiver or something that does just that but those are a bit on the expensive side. Was wondering if there were some cheaper alternatives from different brands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an own brand.I see you are in the USA - why not visit one of your major electronic outlets to see what they have. Trawling websites may not illustrate the receiver they are provided with.

MANEMAN Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 I use **Input Director** with success. (Free !!)I think you could integrate that into anything that you may have in mind.John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lok3sh Posted August 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Actually size of a USB stick is too big. I'm talking about those nano recievers that logitech has. And also the software does not help either because it needs to basically have a keyboard and mouse plugged in already...Hmmm... I was actually wondering if any companies had made a competing product to Logitechs unifying nano reciever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Microsoft do some "nano" USB mice and keyboards. I think they are the "Arc" ranges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
