Should work OK for you. Ive used Logitech and Slick keyboard/mouse combos on mine. You may need to go into settings and enable keyboard and mouse. Also I always have the wireless receiver for it plgged into a hardwired USB (wired in port4) before turning on my XBOX
Ive never tried a touchpad with XBOX before though so I cant say as to whether that feature would be supported.

Go to Settings-Appearance-Skin should be the very last entry in the list. If you happen to be running UnleashX as dash and XBMC as an app go into the UnleashX settings and enable it there as well.

As i know, only wired keyboards and mouses run with XBMC/Xbox. Wireless devices need drivers which aren't available for Xbox.
Would be cool if I'm wrong.

I've a cordless keyboard that works great with xbmc4xbox. I bought it to try because it doesn't need drivers (£7 delivered from ebay last week so not a big risk!). The trackball doesn't work on the xbox, in fact it goes a bit haywire if I enable mouse support, but that's no big deal.
It's this:

The above link looks identical, but mine's branded as a Sejin swk-8695wt.
I'm intending to use it with the xbox, tablet and Pi as needed.

This page is not going to help you guys a lot.. but as it said.. some wireless mouse and some wireless keyboard are working on XBMC4Xbox.

As trogggy said.. you need to use devices that dosnt require any special drivers.. they need to use
HID driver..
And even there.. no guarantee it will work. Remember, XBMC4Xbox is not an OS.
Good luck hunting for a working ones

. On the old forum some users had report some wireless keyboard currently still available everywhere that where working.
Personally i don't use the keyboard a lot with XBMC, Android suit me fine for the task.

my wireless keyboard works - in fact I have been improving / backporting some fixes for it in recent commits. mouse is a fail so far - im looking into that.
