The only difference I can see is the Elite duo uses batteries exclusively. Otherwise the functionality is the same. Either way, I vote for the logitech duos.
edit: looking at the keyboard, they are the same with the exception that the MX duo uses only 2 batteries whereas the Elite uses 6.

Super, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the elite duo has an MX500 mouse as opposed to the mx duo which has an MX700 mouse. The difference being that the MX500 mouse doesn't have the extra scroll buttons on either side of the wheel nor the two thumb buttons all included on the MX 700. 6 batteries for the keyboard seems excessive, but it's still a great mouse/keyboard combination. If anyone is interested, Logitech is offering a $20 rebate until the end of October '03 on the elite duo. A very nice savings. I may have to buy the elite duo for my wife and snag that MX700 mouse for me!
