Talk about your functional family. You can then add a wireless keyboard, a three-button mouse, and a gamepad. But that's just the starters. By early next year you should find a variety of additional peripherals joining the family. Intel won't hint at what they are, but if they resemble the first three siblings, we're in for a treat.
Installation is easy.
AC current powers the cone-shaped Base Station, while each of the peripherals uses three AAA batteries. And yes, you can use the wireless mouse, keyboard, and gamepad simultaneously. Intel has designed the Base Station to handle up to eight devices. It's doubtful you'll walk around carrying your keyboard or mouse, but for those peripherals, fewer wires on your desktop is a boon. Because I'm using a single Base Station, I don't need a separate receiver for the keyboard and another for the mouse, reducing clutter even more.
