If its Vista, then buy a TV Tuner with WMC support, you will get a Windows Media Center compatible remote with it. With this you do not need any keyboard or mouse to control the HTPC & WMC from a distance.

The choices will be

WinFast DTV1800 H Media Center Edition (Analog + Digital)

WinFast TV2000 XP Global Media Center Edition (Analog only)

Pinnacle PCTV Tuner Kit for Windows Vista (Analog only)

Another method is using your bluetooth enabled phone to control your desktop, WMC & HTPC like you control using keyboard.

If you still want a Keyboard & Mouse combination then raise your budget, you cannot get a Laser Mouse + Keyboard within Rs 2k.

You can get Microsoft Optical Desktop Elite for Bluetooth, but it is optical mouse based & costs more then Rs 2k.

Another choice is Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 3200 Laser but not bluetooth.

Or you can buy seperately but not in bluetooth. Check in the local market for available solutions.

thanks for d help dude... actually what i am building is not exactly a HTPC. i am actually buying a 21" LCD monitor for my PC so that i can enjoy movies in a big screen rather than my 15" CRT and am lazy enough that i dont want to getup in order to fast forward or stop a movie or music... and hence needed a wireless Keyboard + Mouse set .

by d way wht is d cost of d microsoft n d logitech one... u did not mention them. thanks for d info anyway .
