My computer desk got sacked off in favour of a big TV & stand. My PC monitor is now my TV screen.

Obviously don't want the wires everywhere & need to get a wireless keyboard & mouse. Ideally in black similar to how the PS3 casing looks (TV, stand & PS3 are all same colour, want to keep in with that theme)

Whats a good one to go for?

Also is there such a thing as a handheld mouse? So I don't have to put it on a mat & roll it about. Instead it has a sort of remote for the cursor (bit like on the PS3 web browser)

Cheers

Logitech mx revolution and whatever keyboard that you can get in a kit with that.

You get rollerball mouses but not clued up on them.

The Logitech Dinovo Edge would look nice and slick with your PS3

the MCE keyboard is nice.

Its the one you use for media centres, has a mouse built in too, so you can sit back on your bed and chill with it.

think its about £25 then if you get a mouse too for about 20 quid you have an ace setup.

Mice that don't have a built in rechargeable battery with a cradle get annoying after the 1st time they run out and you can't find batteries anywhere in the house.

I've got MCE keyboard with built in mouse for my front room like the one Nismo posted. Its very good and you can control your volume from your TV as well on it and switch from your sky input to the PC by just pressing a button. I've had it a couple of months now and i've not swapped my batteries yet.

I do have the remote but I only bought it for the IR reciever. It confussed the hell out of me when I first used it because when I pressed the green button it turned on my xbox on and my media centre extender. When my PC goes upstairs it will save me having to use the 360 controller
