I have the Saitek Eclipse 1 and 2. I like 2 better because of the media buttons and extra colors.
The Eclipse 3 looks kick ass

I played with a G15 Rev 2 today and also a G11, and preferred the G11. Personally, unless you play a lot of MMORPG, I think the macro keys and G keys will be pretty useless.
If you do FPS, get the Timberwolf or a normal keyboard (*cough* Eclipse *cough*)

I have never had problems with mine, but I guess every user is different. Plus I have never tried the ones that have the changeable keypads. I can see that being a hassle.Freezer7Pro wrote:

They are fairly cheaper and last. Plus you can change the color of the backlight.

Detachable numpad, backlight control, many extra gaming buttons
dont get Reclusa - it doesnt have mute button
dont get Lycosa - its not enough 'gaming' imo, and the gaming mode blocks CTRL button (but they fixed it in some kind of update propably)

This looks pretty fucking spiffy.
I don't even care it's red and black...
Same, though I use Winamp for music and Winamp has built in hotkeys (have to enable). Ctrl+alt+<various keys> which IMO, is easier than multimedia keys anyway. Works in-game as well.GCFC wrote:

I <3 my G15.
If I hadnt bought my Lycosa a few months back I would probably have gotten that.FFLink13 wrote:

Lycosa is great, but that is something else.
I just love Logitech UltraX Flat Premiums.... once you go flat, you can't go back

I had a flat keyboard from Logi but after a while of using it my fingers started to hurt while I was gaming. For gaming lower profile of the keys feels better for me.GC_PaNzerFIN wrote:

I have the exact same keyboard and it rocks. My brother has the Evo 2, which is basically the same, with more media buttons, and different coloured backlights.Jenspm wrote:

Either are a great buy.
