5 out of 5 stars Surprised by this keyboard's quality   December 28, 2005

I have to say that I'm somewhat surprised by the quality of this keyboard. I was expecting a gimmicky glowing keyboard that wouldn't be much on function. It's actually quite a good keyboard. Very nice to type on. It's quite a bit heavier than my last keybard and the rubber grips on the bottom really anchor it to my desk.

Contrary to what other reviewers have said, I'm having no problem using this product with a KVM switch (so far at least). I'm able to switch easily between my dell and my mac mini using the Iogear USB KVM also sold on amazon.

The only real criticism I have is that the brightness seems to be somewhat uneven. The keypad and function keys aren't quite as bright as the home row.

Also, I've noted that in some lighting situations the keys are actually easier to read with the backlight off. Fortunately there's a switch that allows you to easily turn the backlight off (or dim).

Well i been updating my computer, in and out side of it. Finaly i needed a matching keyboard so i went with Saitek PZ30AU Eclipse Keyboard. I love the light, even though i already know where the keys are, and cant type in complete darkness it still cool to have :D. The voulme changing buttons are a great handy tool, maybe buttons to change to the next song would be great too :D. Over all i give this keyboard 10 out of 10, in style 10 out of 10 also, for the price it is worth it.

I see most gave this a bad review because of the reflection of keyboard, yes its true, but thats only if you dont know how to properly use a keyboard. When typing and you look down, you should see your keyboard, it shouldnt be at an angle under your monitor. Best place to have it is on the desk tray for the keyboard. Move it right infront of you till your right above it, and you will notice there is no glare or reflection from the monitor.



5 out of 5 stars Perfect except no media keys   March 27, 2007

This is a great keyboard for nearly everything that can be done on a computer. It is responsive, feels comfortable underneath the fingers, and is very quiet so it will not wake up your roommate or whoever while they are sleeping. And if your superficial, the blue-lit keys are cool. But if you're not, you can easily turn off the light as well. However, the only problem that I kind of have with it is that there are no media keys. This is a very minor detail, but its just something that would have made this keyboard absolutely perfect. But don't let that deter you from buying this keyboard. I still give it five stars but you'll just have to work around the minor inconvenience.


5 out of 5 stars GREAT KEYBOARD!   August 15, 2005

I have used and owned this keyboard for awhile now and it is great!

Pros:

Plug-In and play
Great design
Great style
Heavy Design
Soft, nice to touch keys
EVEN WORKS FOR MAC OS X 10.4 Tiger [Even though it says it doesn't]

Cons:
Fairly Expensive
Won't work through ps/2 connection
no KVM switch capability, even though I haven't tested it

I don't regred this purchace and will continue to use this product for many years to come



5 out of 5 stars Nice keyboard   October 26, 2005

great board, the volume settings are handy, the light is not 2 bright and even the dim light setting shows all keys perfectly in the dark, the keys feel very sturdy and respond perfectly, the design seems wierd when u see it on a picture but it looks beautiful when you take it out of the package, i like the adjustable wrist support so if you do alota gaming this will be a life saver, the only problem i have with it is the numlock, capslock, and scroll lock lights dont corrispond with the brightness of the keys and bother my eyes a lil bit when on.
