Im hopefully getting a wireless keyboard ( + Matching wireless mouse ) but someone ( I can't remeber who ) told me that wireless keyboards are slow for gaming and he/she had one but ditched it because it was slow. Is this true for all or any wireless keyboards?

Hey man, that was me who told you that.

It's not that wireless keyboards are slow, it's just that some of them do not register all of the key inputs at one time.  Those keyboards arent meant for gaming, so when you're using the movement commands, and want to sprint or something, you often have to let go of another key so it will register the sprint command.  It's like.. a maximum amount of keys that can be used at one tiem when they're all rpessed... if that makes sense.

If you want a decent wireless keyboard/mouse combo for gaming, you're good with the MX3000 or MX3100 if you can find it.

Razer is about to release it's own beyboard.  Expensive, but it's Razer so you know its high-fucking quality.

You probably heard me too but I had a Logitech diNova Cordless desktop it was ergonomic I used it allot and since I did the circuits I guass started to die so I had to actually smash buttons to get them to work on occasion and sometime I would just stop in the open... not good especially when you stop on a grenades It is good if you only use it for word an stuff like that but for gaming $100 down the drain.
