yeah it's for mice, keyboards, printers, etc.
yeah it has to be Intel "wireless" equipment..... I guess they sell the base sepearate so if you buy a keyboard and mouse separately, they only need to sell one base...hence save money.
But for a buck or so (postage, tax, etc)...it may be worth it.
Oh wait, I have a $20 GC...maybe I'll go use that on it...
