Okay, so, basically for the last two years, i've had a Logitech Ultra-X Media Desktop. Wireless keyboard & mouse, and the keyboard is a fullsize one with low-profile keys and a number pad. This is it here:

Now, i've actually had two of these, and i still have both - the first one has a broken 'fn' key (scissor mech snapped) and looks worn out - and the second one is what i'm typing on, works fine, but also is worn out, the lettering is starting to rub off and the keys are no longer satin finish, but almost liked polished plastic. The mouse similarly has lost its plastic 'feet' and is starting to wear out and stick, no matter how many times i pull it apart and clean it.
I'm now in the process of trying to find a replacement for it, but not having much luck. I don't need an all singing, all dancing setup, ideally, i'd like another one of these, again, but finding one is nigh on impossible, if theres anyone that has stock left of this OEM/System Builder Only desktop kit.
The Logitech diNovo is too expensive and stupidly laid out in the fact that the numberpad is totally separate, the diNovo Edge looks pretty but has no numberpad at all (i NEED a numberpad).
Labtec has a setup thats similar, but after having trying it out, i've ruled it out as being too cheap and crappily made.
So, any suggestions? I *NEED* low profile keys!
And if someone knows of where i can get another one of the same thing, i'm going to buy several and stockpile them!
