In a new blog post, Microsoft are showing off their new Windows 8-ready mice and keyboards.
There is a new wedge keyboard designed specifically to work with tablets.
The new keyboards sport the all new Windows 8 logo:
There is also a wedge touch mouse:
There is no USB transceiver with this mouse – like the Wedge Touch Keyboard, it seamlessly connected to my tablet via Bluetooth. But this mouse isn’t just great with tablets – it can be used with any PC or device and works especially well in limited working spaces. And it features BlueTrack Technology so it works great on virtually any surface. The Wedge Touch Mouse also has four-way touch scrolling. Oh, and to save battery life – it will power down and go into sleep along with the PC or device it’s paired to. How cool is that?
The Wedge Touch Mouse will be available soon for $69.95 (U.S.).
The Sculpt Mobile Keyboard looks really cool as well!

I guess I’ll need to wait and see what it’s really like but that mouse looks very uncomfortable. Can’t see myself using a mouse like that for long periods of time.
