Review of the Logitech DiNovo System
Posted by Filip Norrgard in "ARTICLE" @ 08:00 AM
LIVEdigitally have put up a nice review of the Logitech DiNovo Bluetooth keyboard and mouse system:
"I view Logitech as the BMW of computer peripherals; premium products for the discriminating taste, with a hefty admission price. While I have tried "multimedia" keyboards before (and been less than impressed), this one takes the category further. The whole package comes in a black and dark gray color scheme accented by green and blue LEDs and silver buttons. It is very cool and ultramodern with a European flair. But design is only the extra touch. I will explain who can most benefit from this progressive hardware and why."
The reviewer, Jonas DeMuro, likes the DiNovo system as much as I like it. FYI: I'm typing this post on one right now! :cool: I can't help but recommending the DiNovo keyboard to almost anyone. The media-pad is handy for remote listening on radio headphones, the keyboard is extraordinarily silent and the mouse is responsive enough for gaming. Plus you get a Bluetooth station in the deal, for syncing PDAs and cellphones! Quite sufficient for many people's needs.
The reviewer didn't mention which Bluetooth version that his DiNovo system came with since there are two different ones out there. One is the 1.1 version (which I've got) and the newer better 1.2 version that should be even more kinder on the batteries. So, if you are considering buying a DiNovo keyboard system, then be sure it is the one with Bluetooth version 1.2. ;)
