Considering I would pay the same price because someone is selling a microsoft bluetooth set for $35 or should I just get a wireless set?

Wireless is good, but Bluetooth has better connectivity and range.

No, bluetooth and 2.4Ghz (common wireless connection) aren't the same, both use different technologies, bluetooth has normally a better coverage and it wont interfere with your cordless phone or your wireless router (if you have any of those). Much of the devices out there work with common batteries (normally 2AA batteries), but some of them have rechargeable batteries. If you're planning to buy a keyboard/mice make sure that if works with bluetooth and the best brand for wireless keyboards/mice is Logitech. Hope this helps!

There is not much of a difference between the 2 but if you use wireless routing for your computer you might want to consider a wireless set, that uses inferred, where blue tooth might cause errors with you wireless lan because they both are 2.4 ghz frequency devices. But if you do not have a wireless network, then blue tooth offers faster transfer, and can be used farther from the computer than an inferred wireless device, so both have their benefits based on your situation.

In most cases bluetooth and wireless are the same thing, but if you have a choice i recommend bluetooth, because it is most reliable and i have several devices that use bluetooth including my keyboard.

Wireless seems to die out quicker and need more batteries..
Blue tooth, while lasting longer tend to interfere with your screen, other mobile and wireless items and loss connection easier in metal surrounding.
Personally though Microsoft is a good company so I would go for the cheap blue tooth set.

Get the best deal you can afford.
I don't use bluetooth myself, too used to wireless.
Not sure where you are, but wireless is dirt cheap here.

For that price, I would go for bluetooth set. You can always use the bluetooth for other application as well.

actually both of it only make a bit differences
it takes an extra maintenance for the battery
i myself like to choose the wire set becaue i dont need any maintenance and your mouse will be hang on wire if it drop down
so i think that will be better
