    Since most (if not all) wireless keyboards transmit via infrared, this
    would
    require on-site tapping (nothing like sitting outside in your car with a
    radio
    receiver), involving a few components (a photocell comes to mind) and
    recording
    and/or relaying equipment. This device would have to be placed in the
    path of
    the infrared output of the device in order to get a proper signal.

    It could be acheived, but I'm not really certain it would be worth
    it...if you
    have enough access to place an electronic tap, then theoretically, you
    could
    just plop down a keystroke logger and get the same results without the
    mess.
