I use an apple wireless keyboard and mouse with Tiger and a PowerMac  
G5 (Bluetooth 1.1).  I have had very good luck with them; they are  
connected and working correctly virtually all the time.  I was not  
excited by the price at first, and with Panther, they weren't as good  
as they are now about battery consumption and connectivity, but still  
better than the Belkin Bluetooth one I bought for my PowerBook.  The  
major drawback is that the mouse still only has one button.  I would  
look at the ones made by RadTech, or MacAlly if you want something a  
little less expensive.  Make sure that they have a switch on the  
bottom to turn them off or they will eat batteries (the belkin one  
again didn't have that feature, stupid me for buying it).  I suggest  
going with bluetooth if you have it built in, rather than getting  
something that requires a USB adapter, which eats a USB port.   
Anyway, that's my two cents.
