My apologies for the OT.  After spotting a Logitech cordless keyboard
in use in one department that I maintain, I scoured the web looking
for information about the possibility of interception of its signals.
I've found nothing.

Does anyone know how difficult it might be to sniff one of these
devices?  Logitech marketing info claims that it's "digitally secure",
but without third-party information to back this up, my innately
paranoid nature remains cautious, given its 6-10 foot range (more than
enough to span cubicles or even apartments).
