Replacement for my MX duo?

As inferred by subject, i'm currently using an MX duo for my keyboard / mouse needs. I absolutely love the wireless and love the mouse, but the keyboard is driving me nuts, it feels cheap, the keys seem squishy, and the fact its not "natural (ergonomically broken), really cramps my typin style (and wrists). I would like to find a wireless combo with a "natural" keyboard. About the only thing i've seen that fits the bill is MS's new Microsoft wireless optical desktop pro 2.0

I've used the keyboard at bestbuy and it seems fine, but i'm worried about the mouse. How much performance am i going to be losing from the mx700? Also, are there any solutions i've overlooked? For instance, could i get a logitech comfort wireless duo and use the natural keyboard from it with the wireless receiver from the Mx duo? Then i could just chunk the "comfort" mouse.
 
The cordless MS combo is the only one with a decent mouse. You could also go corded and have a wider selection, or you could go with the lower end Logitech which has an ergo keyboard.
 
Could i get away with getting the lower level ergo logitech combo, and using just the keyboard with the mxduo's receiver?
 
or get separate things, i have a reciever for my mx700 and a reciever for my lower end logitech wireless keyboard
 
don't ever buy a logitech natrual keyboard.. they are HORRIBLE.. yea i have the same dua and i can't stand logitech keyboards.. i love the mx series mice but hate all their keyboards
 
One of you want to sell the keyboard from your MX Duo? I have a corded MS Natural I would offer as a trade as well. It looks like the current corded, but has black instead of the blue.
 
i've got several corded ms natural keyboards, but i acutally use the wireless feature so i am gonna hold what i have until i can find a cordless natrual keyboard... Any more reviews/ recommendations about the ms wireless optical pro? Specifically, how's the gaming with the mouse?
