I just purchased a logitech wireless keyboard, the mx3000, and I'm not happy AT ALL. Logitech's drivers for os x don't even detect the keyboard or mouse because they've been too lazy to update the drivers in the past 2 years. My question is if there is any way to map the media keys on the keyboard, like play, stop, my documents, email, and whatever, to actually do what they say since the logitech driver is absolutely no help at this point. Sorry if I sound a bit mad, but I might have just spent 85 bucks on something that will do no more than my last keyboard.

I'm not seeing OS X as supported in the description or driver downloads:

I'm not sure about this, but iKey:

might be able to remap the keys for you to perform the functions you want.

Then you can grab USB Overdrive for the mouse.

To dislike Sinatra is a sign of highly questionable taste. To dislike the Beatles is a serious character flaw.

have you had any luck with your setup OperaMan? I pucked one up yesterday at a black friday sale. We had used logitech keyboard/mouse combos with our macs at work, so it shocked me to not have the same support in this.
