Can anyone fill me in on how long a battery will last in the wireless keyboard and mighty mouse? I am looking for hours between charges or battery replacement. Is it worth it to go wireless or is it just a hassle with charging it all the time? Thanks!

Get 6 rechargeable batteries and a battery charger and charge 2 after they are used up while you have the 4 in the MM and keyboard. That way you never have to buy batteries again and don't have to worry about finding AA batteries. I go through the batteries pretty quickly (probably every month or so although I don't keep track) being on the computer a lot. I only have the wireless MM not the keyboard.
 
+1 on rechargeable battery. Costco sells a nice Sanyo rechargeable battery at reasonable price. I love my wireless mouse. Keyboard, I went with wired as I use 10-key very frequently.

I change the battery of my mouse every 2 months.
