Totally agree. Hated keyboard with wrist rests but this one works so well. Very comfy and it looks good too. It doesn't spoil the look of the keyboard like 90% of other wrist rests do to their respective keyboards. In fact, i think it looks better with the wrist rest.
All round plus!

Can anyone tell me how comfortable this keyboard is for general writing over long period of time? I have a dissertation and several projects to write over the next 3 months and whilst my standard logitech keyboard is okay for wordprocessing it's rubbish at gaming. Thanks.

a £44~ keyboard for £26 is pretty damn good.

Any one finding some random key really stiff to push down almost hearing a click when you do push them...will they loosen with time or?

BeeP · 20 Feb 2010 at 22:27

Yes mine was the keypad enter key, a few presses later it was fine.

Great kbd & cracking price. thanks.

I'm very tempted by this deal. I'm not looking for a keyboard just yet, but i will need one when i go to uni when September comes, and for 25 it seems very good. I don't use any macros atm, though i might start using them. Would there be much difference with this kb and a 10 quid generic kb, if i weren't using the macro buttons?
Just looked at the dimensions of it and it's huge! I wouldn't be able to fit it onto my current desk, but would it be worth buying now and keeping it for September? Or should i just wait til august and see what else comes up? Though kb's don't really have that much shift in price do they?

This keyboard is much better for typing on than a cheaper k/b.
The keyboard is quite big, but if you have the desk space for it, it is well worth it.

The stock will not be available in August at this price. I imagine the product will be End of life by then. If you are after a new keyboard in the next 12 months then this is by far the best option. It ticks all the boxes

- Value for money
- Quality
- Great support from the manufacturer
- Feature rich
- Robust

Hmm how does this compare to the Saitek Eclipse 2, Microsoft SideWinder X6 and the Microsoft Reclusa?

Depends on the criteria you want to compare?

Overall personally I feel all Logitech have the best quality, especially regarding the Illumination. I have owned a MS SideWinder X6 and the backlit keys are good, however the light doesn't shine through the actual symbols on the keys. Logitech are much better at deploying Illumination, the symbols on the keys are at around 60-70% transparent thus making the symbols much easier to view.

How do all the people who have received their G11s rate these?

I'm seriously tempted

demonoid-gnome · 23 Feb 2010 at 11:52

Had mine for a few days now. Great piece of kit and the macro keys are really useful.

Might buy another to have as a spare if they`re going to be EOL soon.

Just in general really. Gahh, i'm sold haha

Not gonna get much better for £25.
I'll get it later on in the week when the figures in my bank go up a bit.

Mine arrived today, loving it so far! Takes a bit of getting used to but I cant give any negative about it - definitely recommended if you're in the market for a new keyboard!
