Was at Fry's this morning and saw it advertised for FREE after MIR and picked up one. Now just saw the reviews on Amazon and not sure if it's worth having it. 3-5 second delay between switches seems to be the biggest issue from reading a few reviews. .

I have had this for 4 months now, it has worked perfect since day one.I am also using it with wireless keyboard and mouse, not a set, so two different receivers with no issues.

OK, used it. It has some delay but not too bad. Definitely not 3-5 seconds. More like 1 to 2 seconds after switching the Keyboard becomes active. Mouse and the monitor are active pretty quickly after switching (no discernible delay). However, I am using it with a wireless keyboard and a USB plug in Mouse (not part of the same set), and after trying it on a Win XP / Ubuntu systems, I have decided to keep it. Just wanted to provide feedback, in case any1 wants to jump on this deal.
And especially being FREE after MIR, definitely worth it.

Looks great but performance is very disappointing. Ive had one for the past year, the connection to the main screen through the switch keeps dropping for no reason. so basically you get no display all you can is unhook everything reinstall driver. no wonder they're trying to get rid of it.( this is what happened with me maybe im just unlucky)
