First off, I would suggest Version 3.0 if it fits in your tray. You may
need to call in and ask or something because MS is currently missing the
documentation for these products. Here are the dimensions I found for
Version 2.0:

10.75" (Height) x 18.75" (Width) x 3.5" (Depth)
Weight 4.05 Lb

Here is where the documentation was supposed to be:

(Found from:
http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/Documentation.aspx)
 
I would also suggest that you look at the Logitech keyboards. They offer a
greater variety of wireless products for the desktop than does Microsoft. I
volunteer at the local VA hospital, and I can tell you that in general the
soldiers undergoing rehabilitation there prefer the Logitech because they
are more tactile and are easier to configure for special needs. By all
means do not discount the MS keyboards, but I think you might find a "better
fit" with the Logitech.

thank u, i really appreciate the help. i kthought 3.0 too if its noto to
deformed looking at the pix i cant tell if its larger and by hiw much then a
standard size keybad. and being lefthanded and the only hand that kinda
works now its more imoprtant for me to have a a good wirelkess connection
then hot keys (since it will be hard for me to hit em anyway - my hands are
painful, very sensitive and seem 2 have aq mind of their own when it comes
to hitting keys
on the other hand - i love them toys and 3.0 has some pretty nice stuff.

thanks u very much now it just depends on the size of 3.0

I really appreciate the help

thank u 4 the suggestions i do appreciate em..(theres sentences beklow are
pr0obably run on and dont make sense - tried y best 2 make them readable..

I didnt bother 2 look at logitec for as few reasons
1... i have the msoft wireless mouse and i really like the distance saway
from the sensor the mouse is stilll functional -[ i sleep below 2 quilts
(for weight) and a heating blanket always on] and even below all them and on
the other side of my body (Im in bed) the mouse ist still recognized
strong.
2. since msoft made the os , keybd and mouse there is more out the box
compatibility
and since i have such bad hand damage and due 2 other physicalk probllems i
need for configuration software to be as little as possible in most cases
hopefully none - currently when i sit up it feels like my internal organs
are pulling me down to the floor (so i dont have the luxury of sitting up
very often ) and i do have a 6-8 computer netwwork to maintain - along with
raid drives and other hardware in all systems. so i dont have much strength
or eng=ergy keft trying 2 keep to a minimum - with logitec there is usually
a driver with msux since its their own product at least the prducts basic
functions usually work without any additional software.
3. i;m more conbcernbed with wireless part functining then the added
freatures and hot keys althiugh its nice 2 hanve em and if they ever could
fixed me i sure like 2 have the extras..


thank u very much 4 the info and suggestions i am gonna take anpother look
at logitec before i take the micr0osuk plunge.

i really like the way the newer wireless msoft mice react and feel.
