Default HTPC Owners - Come Here! Keyboard/Mouse Inquiry

OK, now that I have your attention, I'd like to ask the congregation for some help on something.

I currently have two HDTVs at my house, both of which have HTPCs hooked up to them. The keyboard and mouse combo sets I'm using leave a lot to be desired. The one for my main home theater is a Logitech diNovo Edge, and it's OK. The one for my bedroom is a Visenta, and it is cheaper than cheap — I am totally fed up with it. Impossible to type, dropped connections consistently, bizarre mouse behavior...basically it's everything you don't want. I paid $30 for it new from eBay, so I guess in a sense I got what I paid for. The Logitech cost me a pretty penny, and in all honesty it is a much better keyboard. I'm not looking to break the bank with a replacement keyboard/mouse for the bedroom, though.

My goal is to replace (at least) my Visenta. I want something small and hopefully slim, as I like to stow the keyboard out of site and I don't have much room in the place where I typically keep it. My requirements are simple: slim, wireless, and must include trackpad-type mouse. That's it. A 10-key would be cool, but not necessary; those generally add length anyway. I've seen the Adesso models, and am tempted to try them. I am currently using a Dell SX280 for the computer with the Visenta keyboard/mouse, but will likely be replacing that (as well as my other HTPC in my home theater, for that matter) with a Mac Mini. I saw that Logitech is selling a keyboard that matches the aesthetics of the Wii, and I would be totally down for something like that, but it has to have a mouse.

What are you guys using for wireless keyboard/mouse combos?
