if u buy a Microsoft Bluetooth wireless mouse...will the Microsoft Bluetooth adapter work with the Apple wireless keyboard? Or does only the D-Link USB adapter work with the Apple wireless keyboard?

It's USB ? Then yeah, sure it'll work.

I had a similar question. Is BLUE TOOTH the same as USB? Everything works with anything that has it.

so has anyone tried this above?

I am problem going to do the same thing. Get an apple keyboard, but not that one button mouse.

So do the apple products only work with the module they recommend?

And even if that is so, does that module work with microsoft products?

The Apple-endorsed D-link USB-Bluetooth module will work with Apple's keyboard and mouse, and will also work with just about any other Bluetooth device (including, I suspect, the Microsoft bluetooth wireless mouse).

As for the Microsoft-branded bluetooth module, it might have some issues with the Apple wireless keyboard and mouse. Apple does use some newer type of interference rejection to prevent 802.11b signals from screwing with the bluetooth signal.

I'd feel safer going with the Apple-endorsed D-link module. Apple was even good enough to provide a firmware update for certain older models of the D-link device.
