Anyone know of a cheap bluetooth mouse/keyboard combo?

I am so tempted to just get this wireless combo since it is so cheap:

Three problems there... I don't beleive that's bluetooth, it's a refurb, and I don't trust those stores.

If you want bluetooth, expect to pay for it. It's still a rather expensive technology. I'd be afraid a cheap one would just not be worth anything.

I have a wireless keyboard/mouse set from microsoft I'm selling if you just want a good wireless set. The main reason I don't want it anymore is because the mouse is a smooth scroller. Not bad for web browsing, but it can scroll my mistake in say a game or something(switching weapons and what not.)

Also, what's the range for bluetooth? I don't know if it'd be better than standard RF, but mine was pretty impressive. I walked into the bathroom(probably about 20' from my computer) to clean up my keyboard and when I came back, I had all kinds of jiberish typed on my screen

OH, and so you don't get the wrong idea, I just rub each key with a damp cloth. I don't dunk it in water or anything!

bluetooth. you'll probably be looking around 100 for keyboard and mouse. or even more. so its really not that cheap if your idea of cheap is 20 dollars.

if you want wireless connectivity, just go for regular wireless.
take The_Other_One's offer, or check out something like these.
