Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000

Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 represents the ultimate rechargeable keyboard and mouse for Windows Vista and PC entertainment. Designed to make it easier than ever to control PC media from your desk, your lap-or even from the comfort of your couch.

"We are pushing the envelope on hardware design to meet the new ways consumers are using their PCs at home and in the office. Keyboards and mice are no longer just about typing and clicking - they are an extension of the individual's personality," said Dan O'Neil, industrial designer with Microsoft Hardware. "The Hardware team took both visual and interaction cues from Windows Vista to help create this unique product line that keeps up with consumers' performance expectations, comfort needs and style preferences with better recharging, real metal accents, a symmetrical form language and intelligent backlighting to continue leading industry innovations."

The Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 is a masterful combinations of futuristic industrial design and productivity-enhancing features. These stylish desktops are only an inch thick, yet are filled with deluxe enhancements that allow users to work and play where, when and how they want. Both desktops take advantage of Windows Vista to allow users to easily accomplish everyday tasks, instantly find what they are looking for and enjoy the latest in entertainment.

The desktops tap into the most innovative wireless technology with 2.4GHz Bluetooth technology. Featuring First Connect Technology, the desktops will work on PCs right out of the box - there are no setup hassles. For added convenience, the transceiver supports a variety of Bluetooth profiles for connections to multiple Bluetooth devices. Even with multiple wireless connections, users will find virtually no interference as a result of intelligent technology that "hops" when it encounters a trouble spot.

This ultra-thin entertainment desktop set with rechargeable mouse delivers on/off desk top-notch performance with virtually no interference-from up to 30 feet away.

The Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000, previewed in June as the "ultimate keyboard", will take entertainment to the extreme with its smart backlighting features. When users want to kick back, they can simply dim the lights and use the keyboard to control the TV show they just downloaded. The automatic backlighting lets them easily see all the keys without compromising the relaxed atmosphere. With its ambient light sensing, the backlighting is automatically adjusted based on the amount of light in the room. It also features proximity awareness to sense when the user walks away from the keyboard, which prompts it to turn off to conserve battery life and turn back on when the user returns.
