Saitek is well known for its exotic gaming keyboards. The C100X, however, is an altogether more reserved affair, and first impressions were good. The small, simple, black keyboard had a nice typing action, and the keys, while making a more plasticky sound than Cherry's, were snappy and responsive. The layout also benefits from not having a swarm of shortcut keys around the keypad, just volume buttons along the top.

The wireless technology is the basic 27MHz RF, which doesn't always perform well, but the receiver is located in a pebble-shaped hub that you can sit on your desk, avoiding the signal from the PC getting blocked. On the other hand, it has large, bright LEDs on it that blink annoyingly, making you wish it was out of sight.

This black pebble doubles as a battery charger for the mouse's pair of AAA cells. Since you have to take the batteries out of the mouse to charge them, you'll still need a spare pair for when they run out, which kind of defeats the point.

Much like the keyboard, the black Saitek optical mouse is as simple as they come, without any shortcut or navigation buttons, just the usual scroll wheel. We noted that every now and again the cursor would refuse to respond to subtle mouse movements, so you may need a higher quality mouse if you're into serious photo editing or gaming. It's fine for everyday use, though.

I was actually considering buying something like this.. :pac:
