I saw a Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse, I think Logitech Makes one too. Does anyone know if the M$ one works with OS X since it supports Bluetooth? Would I need that DLINK Bluetooth adapter or does the one that comes with it work? It would be nice to be able to use my Keyboard from the bed or sitting away from the computer.

Yes! That would be sweet. Something like that might be the thing that brings me to get a new iMac. I'd love to have ONE cable coming from the back of my Mac (power cable) and that's it! Airport for the network, and no cables for KB or Mouse. No monitor cables, etc. Nice! Come on Apple!

I use a wireless mouse and keyboard. RF though, not BlueTooth. Microsoft. Works well, and excellent OS X.2 drivers.
This thread probably belongs in the Peripherals section.

This was already discussed in the peripheral forum. If you do a search there you can find the thread. Basically the MS Bluetooth keyboard didn't have drivers. I don't know if 10.2.3 changed that as it appears they were likely awaiting a basic Apple driver.
Having said that though consensus also was that buying a bluetooth wireless keyboard made little sense when regular wireless ones already are around and work very well for far less. You pay a high premium for saying it is bluetooth with no change in functionality.
