I recently bought a Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3000 on sale. (wasn't for me)
I have the Microsoft Digital Media 3000 keyboard and the Logitech G9 mouse and was wondering if it was faster (for gaming and such) or slower than the 2.4 GHz set. (2.4GHz or USB)
Ive been doing some research and it seems like the topic hasn't come up anywhere, hopefully there is an answer.

Thanks in advance

Well, USB is a faster bus, and it is hardwired (so you won't get interference problems).

You can also enable 1000Hz polling in SetPoint II, and that will drastically increase your performance of the G9.

Not to mention, the G9's sensor is way better. :)

Cheers.
