...Just don't forget that wireless keyboards and mice run on batteries, so
you'll occasionally be heading out in search of fresh batteries to
unfreeze your input. (How often? It's hard to say. At the office where
I work we had to replace the batteries in a mouse only a couple of months
after it was purchased; its companion keyboard is still working fine on
its original batteries a couple of years later.)
