I can heartily recommend the keyboard! I'm using it right now, and it's helped with my wrist pains no-end! Especially as I clock at least 12+ hours at a PC a day. A great piece of kit.
However, that mouse... utterly useless. I wish I had never spent the £40 on it. While it IS very, very comfortable, it's so completely inaccurate to a point of being near-worthless as a mouse, which is a real shame.
For now, i'll be sticking with my ancient IntelliMouse Explorer 3000 (wired)
I want something different and the ?Revolution? (I refuse to call it Wii) provides that, I?m not too bothered by graphics at all; the GC had plenty for a smooth experience for my tastes. I?m all about the game play, the FUN!
If it appears that the ?Revolution? can provide this, then I?ll buy it a few months after release. Hell, it?ll probably end up getting that dollar symbol changed straight into a pound (UK£) symbol anyway, as all things seem to recently, but I will most likely buy one.
The fact that we may be able to play GC, SNES & NES games is an incredible bonus for a retro-fan like me.

More Wii details: Japan gets it December 2nd
Sep 14th 2006 3:37AM (Engadget)You take those prices and convert them from US$ to UK£ and there are some nice figures there:
Wii: $250 / £138 (at 1.8US$ to the UK£)
SAdly, this most likely wont happen (as bloody ever) and we'll have to fork out about £200, if not more.
Happy retro-techno music day

Thier website is also fantastic.
Sadly, i cannot for the life of me find anywhere that sells it! *cry*
Denon DN-HD2500 Adds Internal Hard Drive to Digital Turntable
Aug 25th 2006 5:36AM (Engadget)Wii for November under $250, and it "won't have hidden fees or costs"
Aug 16th 2006 3:16AM (Engadget)AS it stands, $250 roughly translates to £150, which is a damn fine price for a new games console.
Hoepfully, the extra controllers wont cost too much, and i also hope the games arent much of £35 ($60 approx).
I'm very much looking forward to the release!
Some next gen Star Wars love

I?m yet to buy a PSP, I so want one of those too!
