My new computer has a wireless keyboard and mouse.  The batteries in
the mouse (two AAs) go bad really fast.  The mouse stays "on" all night
even though the computer isn't on.  I called Dell and asked about it -
if there was a way to turn the mouse off - and was told by the tech rep
that the answer was no.  I would have to just remove the batteries if I
wanted it "off".  This doesn't sound right ... it's like leaving a
flash light on  all the time.

Anybody on here have a wireless setup like this?  How is it supposed to
work?  This is the first one for me....my others were all wired.
Thanks.
