| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Bad Mouse
The mouse is almost unusable. You have to push in almost the center of the clicker for it to respond, then it takes a jam instead of a touch, which moves the pointer away from the original target. If it weren't so much trouble I would send it back. | 1 | Today | Works well for what it is.
I had no problem with using the mouse or the keypad. My only complaint is that when the battery is wearing down, the connection has to be reset (press the button on the usb receiver and then on the keypad) if it goes unused for a while. The mouse is a little small, but for travel it works fine. It was very helpful to have the external num pad when I was using my laptop all the time! | 4 | Today | Don't count on it
First of all, the user guide warns that the mouse "may" interfere with other wireless devices, and other wireless devices "may" (they will) interfere with it. In troubleshooting, the user guide advises the if the mouse or keypad are intermittent (they are) or stop working (they do), increase the distance between the receiver and base unit (about 3 feet works) and turn off any wireless devices- like your wireless modem, router, telephone, cellphone, bluetooth, basically everything you need to use the laptop in the first place.
OK, now it works. For 2 minutes. Now when it stops working, the user guide suggests resetting the "identification code", which means that you press a button on the receiver, then on the mouse, again on the receiver, then on the keypad.
OK, now it works. For 2 minutes. Repeat all of the above.
And so on for several hours.
Return to store. Get a refund.
Problem solved! | 1 | Today | Really crappy merchandise
I bought this item. The mouse is flimsy and the release for the battery on the mouse is where you would normally rest your hand; consequently the battery keeps popping out. The keypad is cheesy, feels very cheap. For the price I would not recommend, actually it's not worth $29.99. This purchase burned me from purchasing ANY Targus product. | 1 | Today | Targus PAKP003U Wireless Keypad and Mouse Combo
Overall optical response on the mouse is good. However, placing the USB receiver on the other side of my laptop (opposite the mouse) causes decreased functionality to the point of inoperability. The On/off button on the mouse is a little hard to operate (requires a fingernail and some patience). The 10-key pad works well. | 3 | Today | BUYER BEWARE
This is my first review because I felt compelled to tell everyone what a huge piece of junk this is. I bought this combo device from a national electronics company. I had to charge it for over 8 hours and still could not get it to work. There was nothing I could do to make either the keypad or mouse work. When I returned it, the customer service guy told me that there used to be a local rep for Targus in the area because there were so many problems with it. I went to the same area of the store where I bought this product to browse for a different brand. At the bottom of the shelf was another one of these Targus combos that someone had returned. There was an open-box discount on it. I feel sorry for anyone who buys this shoddy piece of equipment. | 1 | Today | Did not work!
The wireless mouse was wonderful. It hooked up right away with the computer. The keypad never hooked up and had to be returned. After reading more reviews on the product, other consumers had the same problem that I did. I would not recommend buying this product. | 1 | Today | Not bad for the price
It is a good product, people here don't know how to review something, and are making up things. The keypad it bigger than a pack of cigarettes, much bigger and just as thick. It is low profile so it would be nice for it to be even thinner. The mouse is so small, takes what 15 minutes to get used to. It has scrolling function, laser pointer is a huge plus. The setup it pretty easy put batteries in, plug usb wait for it to automatically install because it is plug and play. Then hold down the button the usb part and the mouse at the same time and do the same thing for the keypad, very easy. But people can't seem to figure that out. And that is a exaggeration that is can't go a foot away. I went six feet away without problems, who would really need to go further than foot anways. It says on the package mouse for laptop, doesn't say desktop. But it comes with a usb extension anyways. | 4 | Today | Extremely disappointing
Mouse performance is extremely erratic. Keypad frequently does not function at all. Look for another product if you need a keypad and mouse for your notebook. | 1 | Today | Too small
If you have a laptop and are looking for a mouse/number pad combo, pass this one up. First off, it's way too small to use- the mouse alone is not even as big as a pool ball, and the keypad is about the size of, if not just barely bigger than, a pack of cigarettes, only about half as thick. The small size make them almost impossible to use. The only reason I gave it two stars is the price. Otherwise, unless you are a kid or have very small hands, just spend an extra $10-$20 for a bigger sized set. This one's not worth the money. Sorry to be so critical and harsh, but I'm just telling it as it is. | 2 | Today |
