5 out of 5 stars Great Gaming Keyboard   January 7, 2009
Overall this keyboard is outstanding. It makes regular dell keyboards feel like cheap junk; it's to the point where I don't like to use any other computers now. It's great for regular use, not just Gaming.

The key feel is soft and controlled, plus the backlit keys let you game with room lights off. They keyboard also has sound control, which was a bonus for me.

In my opinion this is the best keyboard you can get in the $40 range.



5 out of 5 stars MELEMEL   January 6, 2009
I love this keyboard, I did not know that lighted keyboards existed. I like that the lights can be switched from red to blue to purple. It is so easy to use. When I first got it I left it on all night, it gave off this illuminating glow. My children and grandchildren also love it, I'm thinking about order one for them. I am glad that I made this purchase, I will never go back to using a regular keybord. This product is fantastic.


4 out of 5 stars Good for low light   January 6, 2009
I really like the lighted keyboard but have had a hard time getting used to the "standard" keyboard as I was used to using the Microsoft ergonomic keyboard which spreads the typing angle.


5 out of 5 stars Almost perfect   January 4, 2009
The only flaw I have with this keyboard is the space key is very very hard to press. You have to press the space bar exactly in the middle which is very difficult when you are typing quickly.

Other than the space bar, the keyboard is great. The lights are bright so playing games at night is no longer a problem. I'm concerned the letters will wear off eventually, but they don't show any signs of doing so.



5 out of 5 stars Perfect for Me   December 31, 2008

I shopped around for a long time before I bought a new keyboard. My keyboard is onle of my most important work tools, I work from home and I'm on the computer a lot.

I wanted an illuminated keyboard because we recently moved and my desk is right outside my son's room now, so I often work with the lights dimmed. I also needed a keyboard that was quiet. This particular keyboard fit both needs for me. The media keys have also been helpful for some of my specialized projects.

I have to agree with the other reviewers, Amazon.com beats the brick and mortar stores as far as price. I've seen this keyboard for as much as 20 dollars more in "stores" since purchasing mine on Amazon.
