I have a PPC G4 Mac mini without bluetooth built in. So, I want to buy a 3rd party bluetooth dongle to pair with Apple wireless keyboard. Besides, I also want to buy a "Logitech(R) V320 Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks" for my Mac. It uses 2.4Ghz micro receiver. I wonder will that the bluetooth dongle and the receiver conflict?
Thanks

One more thing. The mouse is for notebooks. I still doubt whether can it be used on my Mac as it is not a notebook? It should be all the same right?

it'll be fine. the "notebook" is just a branding thing... doesn't make any difference what you call the mouse. smile.gif

apple wireless keyboard is bluetooth and the logitech is radio frequency if i am not wrong...no blue tooth device comes so cheap.. look at the dinovo.. costs a bomb for the bluetooth keyboard and mouse set with bluetooth base station...

although both is on the same frequency range... there is many freqeuncy bands that can be used.. i think the mouse shouls have a selector below it..and furthermore bluetooth will require pairing with your computer... so it should't be confused...

Ah, Great. No conflict then it's good.

Thanks

Oh yah, one more thing. If I use D link G122 WIFI USB adapter together with the mouse and keyboard, will the mouse conflict with the adapter? The adapter uses 2.4 Ghz Radio frequency too right?

signal problem seldom happens... manufacturers would have thought of this ahead of you... that is what i hope sweat.gif ... furthermore.. i don't think your devices are not the only ones runnning the 2.4GHz range around you... there is many other things like wireless phones and many more that is travelling in the air waves..
