 Good for low light January 6, 2009
Dale Schweinberger (San Diego)
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.
 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.

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.
Decent; better multifunction buttons = better December 27, 2008

So, this keyboard is great, but ideally the volume keys would be larger and not so readily confused with other nearby keys. Also, it would be absolutely great if the brightness knob would also function as a volume knob! Nice, quiet keystroke action, beautiful lit keys and a sleek robotic look are appropriate and appreciated. The weight of the keyboard is almost enough, but a tad more weight would aid in keeping it put in one location, especially on a messy desk!
Very solidly-built December 26, 2008

I bought this keyboard for the LED backlit keys, which are extremely useful in the dim room where I work. When I ordered it, I didn't have high hopes for the build quality, and figured it would be just average. I'm glad to say I was wrong. This is the most solidly-built keyboard I've used in a very long time. The unit itself is nice and heavy, and doesn't slide around like my other keyboards. The keys have a solid, but quiet/muffled feel, with good travel. Much better than the Dell and Microsoft keyboards I'm used to.
Of course, the key layout is nice and standard, with the backslash, insert, delete, home, end, pgup, and pgdn keys in the right spots. Also, the letters are not cheaply printed onto the keys, so there shouldn't be problems with letters wearing off. This is a programmer's/typist's keyboard!
Great job, Saitek!
