Whether you’re catching up on your e-mail,
updating your status on Facebook or just doing a little shopping,
you don’t want any unnecessary inconveniences. To help you enjoy a
comfortable and hassle-free laptop experience, Logitech today introduced the Logitech
Wireless Desktop MK710 — the first keyboard-and-mouse
combination to feature up to three years of battery life for both
the keyboard and mouse, as well as the tiny Logitech
Unifying receiver, comfortable Logitech Incurve keys and
hyper-fast scrolling for the mouse.
“No one thinks about changing batteries until they
have to, but when that time comes, it can stop you in your
tracks,” said Rory Dooley, Logitech’s senior vice president and
general manager of the Control Devices business unit. “With its
industry-first three-year battery life for a combo, you might just
forget the Logitech Wireless Desktop MK710 uses batteries at
all.”
Ready to Work or Play – Whenever, Wherever
The combination of three years of battery life and the leave-in
Logitech Unifying receiver ensures the Wireless Desktop MK710 is
ready whenever and wherever you need it. To achieve three years of
battery life, Logitech® Advanced 2.4 GHz wireless technology
transmits information much faster and more efficiently than
typical 27 MHz wireless systems. Furthermore, by reducing the
amount of time the keyboard and mouse remain in active mode when
left idle, the Wireless Desktop MK710 conserves power and
minimizes lag when you resume typing or mousing. (Battery life of
Logitech keyboards is based on a calculation of an estimated two
million keystrokes per year in an office environment; battery life
for Logitech mice may vary based on user and computing
conditions.)
First introduced in August 2009, the tiny Logitech
Unifying receiver is so small it can stay in your laptop when
you’re moving around. And, a single receiver can be paired with up
to six Unifying-compatible Logitech keyboards and mice — freeing
up valuable USB ports and making it easy to mix, match and add to
your existing setup, no matter where you are.
Comfort and
Convenience – At Your Fingertips
The
low-profile keyboard features Logitech Incurve keys and a cushioned
palm rest. With their concave design, Incurve keys support the shape
of your fingertips, while helping guide your fingers to the right
keys. In addition, the soft, rounded edges make it easy for your
fingers to glide from key to key. The cushioned palm rest gives
you a place to rest your hands when you’re not typing. Plus, an
LCD dashboard gives you at-a-glance status for Caps Lock, Scroll
Lock, Num Lock and battery life.
The comfortable, midsize laser
mouse delivers smooth tracking on a variety of surfaces and puts
control in the palm of your hand. Hyper-fast scrolling lets you
fly through long documents or, if you prefer, you can easily shift
to precise click-to-click scrolling to navigate lists, slides and
image collections. The mouse’s sculpted, right-hand shape guides
your hand to a naturally comfortable position and places the three
customizable thumb buttons within easy reach, so you can move
quickly between Web pages or applications (after downloading of
Logitech software).
Logitech Advanced 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity
delivers the reliability of a cord plus wireless convenience and
freedom. Fast data transmission, virtually no delays or dropouts,
and 128-bit AES encryption give you the peace of mind that comes
from knowing that your data is protected moving from keyboard to
receiver to computer.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech
Wireless Desktop MK710 is expected to be available in Europe
beginning in February 2010 and in the U.S. beginning in April
2010, for a suggested retail price of $99.99.
