Yeh the pouches are out of stock, but the wireless desktops are still available. So just place the pouches on backorder and you will still get the wireless desktop. From what I can figure my wireless desktop will be delivered tomorrow. My invoice is showing a total cost of €6.05 (delivery charge) not sure if you could cancel the backorder for pouches after the desktop has been delivered....

Out of stock,
I ordered the A4 pouches as I actually have a laminator. Clicked on the free organiser (as purchase price in excess of €35) so was looking forward to 2 freebies
Anyway, just got the box without w.desktop but an apology letter from the contact centre manager stating that it would be sent out as soon as its restocked Organiser is pretty stylish too!

Thanks OP. Got mine this morning and am very happy with it.

You can avoid the free delivery minimum by registering as a new user every time you want to place an order. It saves €5 (+VAT) every time and is handy for promotions like these

There's no free delivery mentioned on the website, but on all my invoices the deluvery is free, and I haven't been charged for it.

Save another few euro on everything you buy by prefixing the code with YD9 instead of QD1 - the black leather chair mentioned in the other thread for €60 is €40 if you use YD9, and there's reductions on pretty much everything else too.

Placed an order and then called them and cancelled them after i read this

"i bought this becase i already own a wireless keyboard andmouse but wanted one for my room, i am about 2 feet from the reciever, if i move to 3 foot ithe signal is lost. i wanted to use this from the other side of the room. but have to be closer than my old keybaord cable would stretch too.

so beware the range on this wireless keyboard is short! 3 feet MAX. and i mean MAX, ive been moving and pointing the reciever all different directions all morning. "


the range is Very very short !

LoLth

its more for having a nice tidy desk without the wire clutter etc...

Sir Oxman

Arrived today - well happy for the price and LoLth is right, it;s purpose for me is less wires the better.:)

digitally-yours

i was thinking about using it with my laptop !
certainly not a good idea

with desktop definately it will be fine but i dont have desktop :mad:

parsi

Thanks OP. It arrived today - €12.67 for three packs of pouches and a nice cordless keyboard. Better than the TEvion one that it replaced..

lodgepole

How long after the pouches did people's keyboards arrive? They sent me the pouches last Wednesday, a day after sending an Argos size catologue. No keyboard yet.

Pouches on Friday, Keyboard on Monday

Saruman

ordered mine just now.. when i sort out a media centre it will be perfect.

Arrggghhh!
That Tevion set is absolutely awful! Batteries last little longer than the intro music to 'Lost'... the mouse pointer jumps to the top right corner of the screen whenever it feels like doing so... twice have I been stung by Tevion's shoddy workmanship!

Thanks for bringing back painful memories.

Thankfully I came across this a while back for €45... it's grrreat! :cool:

Saruman

mine arrived on friday, 2 days after the pouches!

Like a bargain! Just spotted it in the new argos catalog for 60 beans.

Has some media buttons etc... its basic enough. I have not actually taken out of the box yet. Will be a few weeks until i order new computers and then put together a media centre out of the my old ones.

lodgepole

It arrived along with a diary to apologise for it being late. The mouse is nicer than I expected, although very basic. I like a basic mouse though so that's all good. Keyboard is now on the far side of the room and is mainly being used for the media keys. Quality way to spend €12. Anyone want to buy some laminate cards?

forbairt

Just ordered ... along with a few other bits and pieces

Got mine on Friday - bargain of they year so far. It's not true about the short range as mine works at at least 20 feet away from one corner of my rectangular sitting room lengthways to the other.

I ordered last night and received keyboard and pouches today. Great deal really.

The keyboard does have a pretty tiny range but it's perfect for what it was designed for, sitting on your desk near the receiver.

Now I need to figure out what to do with three boxes of card pouches..

lodgepole

I'm using it from just over six feet away and there's no problem with the reception. Your line of sight is obviously pretty important, plus you have a pretty decent length USB cable with the reciever.
