Yes, I too am sold on the charger and rechargeables for Magic Mouse and Keyboard. A word of interest; due to the voltage/discharge characteristics of the rechargeables as against straight throwaway cells the indications in the Bluetooth menu drop down fall rapidly at first then hold at quite low values which can be disconcerting until you get used to it. This is documented but I do not have the link to hand. Severin Crisp
