Hi Fokey,

In my opinion, and in a word....NO! Sorry...

You might be able to find a wireless USB transmitter and reciver somewhere, but it would probably be less expensive to get a wireless mouse.

You technically could do it... but it won't be easy. You'd have to rebuild the unit and construct a receiver for it. As for me I'ma stick with wired devices.

i did prefer wired, but laning and stuff is just too annoying with wired. watercooling system added a bunch of wires =.=

I don't mind the wires, I have so many that one or two more won't really make a difference. If you look at my laptop when its on my desk, you will see that EVERY port has a cable plugged into it except the VGA. I also have a USB hub with a bunch of flash drives and other things. I think the only thing that isn't wired is a wireless USB Remote control that I use to control DVDs.
