Regarding wireless keyboards, I have been using an Acer for a couple of years, 
and it works perfectly on my myth box (FC3).  Only $9.00, and it even came with 
a set of Duracell batteries :-)  Best $9.00 I have ever spent on a peripheral.  
Excellent range.  The mouse pad is a little tricky, but doesn't take long to 
get used to.
