>>>Just in case you can't decide between wired and wireless keyboards ;-)
>>
>>Answering from tripwire mansion, there are keyloggers for most wired devices as well, probably most of them in some USB form.
>>Wireless keyboards and mice never made sense for me, as they add unneccessary dependencies while widening the zone in need to be secure to physical access.
>>
>>To be honest, while I love my tablet, I wish there was a way to have it access the net through a charging wire, so I could close down wireless most of the time.
>>But power over LAN had too stiff cables and I only have seen USB-Lan adapters...

>Argh. Even my land line phone works through WLAN nowadays (Fritz!Box feature, so I need my smartphone only) Don't ask for the tablet etc. used by the kids.

I have the Fonero option of Telekom for guests, a separate WLAN for often visiting people, a WLAN just for myself (as some pwds are asked via tablet) and a seperate wire-only subnet for the biz machines. I am starting a new home decoration trend called router gardening ;-))

>And I love my desktop without the kb/mouse cables. It's bluetooth and it runs like a month with a set of AA Cells.

Murphy decrees those cells will run out at an inoppotune time - and I am sometimes glad I can find the rodent by pulling its tail. Coming from a guy sometimes phoning the cell just to find it ;-)

>To track the keyboard. Well this is all funny. If you are a real target your MB will find a new hardware attached one day. No traces left to the door. Or the boss simply will force the admin to install apropriate software.

Have to go to a mirror to talk to the boss. And while I know that I don't stand a chance against people doing this as high paid steady line of work, war-driving kiddies are kept at bay.

>Also I remember to read an article on heise.de about using the radiation from keyboard circuite board / wire to read the keystrokes. No need to deal with the wireless stuff.

AFAIR that was using the radiation from the monitors up to 23m in DOS-based times, at least the other approach does not ring a bell

>The only way to avoid this is the use of paper and pen - but I guess a laser mic might pick up the scratching noises and after a while of signal translation it will be possible to log as you write.

not communicating is also quite secure ;-)
