AFAIK, in general those wireless keyboard + mouse combos work in
FreeBSD. But - there are a few specific models (I have one from Logitech
for example) where the mouse doesn't work. I blame it on the
manufacturer fornot following the usb specs.
I have a few other wireless keyboard + mouse combos - all work nicely
in FreeBSD. Both from Logitech and other manufactureres.

To find out about your specific model, you will have to try 7.0
yourself. Simply boot a liveCD and try it out.

several solutions exists, you will have to try each to find out if it
works with your keyboard(s):
/usr/ports/misc/hotkeys
/usr/ports/sysutils/usbhotkey
