Simply put, you cannot find a better keyboard-mouse combo at this price point or below. The diNovo keyboard and mouse offer great range, responsiveness, aesthetics, and overall solid build quality. While the software could stand a tweak or two, we feel that the hardware that underlies the product is hands down some of the best we have seen. Even though this fine piece of eye candy comes at a steep cost, it is worth every penny.

The only thing keeping the DiNovo from getting a perfect 10 is the software. It isn't buggy, unstable, or cumbersome. It just does not complete the package the way it was meant to. While we would like to think that this was just the first release that would be updated as features become available, the most recent version of the software posted at the Logitech site dates back to December 2003. But, design, quality, reliability, and performance far overshadow the shortcomings of a piece of software most users will not even know exists until after they crack open this detectible bit of desktop jewelry.

Perhaps the biggest draw for the diNovo will be the appeal to the Home Theater PC crowd, where the elegant design and great range make it a perfect match for most users. Whether you are an executive who wants a classy piece of hardware, a home theater fanatic, or an average user that demands quality, you will love the Logitech diNovo.

The price point is something you will have to consider first when shopping. This premium package comes at a steep price, retailing for $250. But, this is only $50 more than the second tier Logitech Bluetooth Duo package, which we rated a 9/10. However, it is also close to $100 more than Microsoft's current offering. Of course if you want a keyboard that is like everyone else's and still offers Bluetooth, Microsoft's options might work for you. Logitech has proven to us time and time again that they are still the king of the wireless input devices, and the price premium is nothing compared to the lasting quality and usefulness.
