I am looking for a fully illuminated keyboard that IS wireless as well. Anyone know if such a thing exists?? Also any Tarantula owners here?? Do the keys light up right across the keyboard or just the 10 specials??

Many Thanks
 
I doubt youll find an illuminated wireless ketybaord because it will drain the battery to much. The tarantula doesn't all light up but their new keyboard coming out around christmas will and looks very nice indeed.


Why must it be illuminated? Some people amaze me how they must have one that is to help them play in the dark... duh turn the light on its bad for your eyes anyway.
 
I like to play in the dark as it helps me concentrate when I'm trying to game seriously. Also at two places I LAN, the lighting is terrible. It's a legimate need rather than a gadget
 
There is a forum post on here only a day old im sure you can find it. or find it on their website.

If you want something illuminated get a wired keyboard. And you really dont need to spend all that out on the razor, i was considering it but out of every review i said it was full of people saying its ok but not worth the money and people commenting saying i wish i enver bought it. Genearly the only people that like it are those which love to brag. The new razor should be better but will still carry a stupidly high price tag for no reason.

If you do a lot of gaming get the G11 or G15 or the saitek. Im currenty using the saitek eclipse and its a very good board. Keys feel nice and it is very well lit up if that is what you need. Dont waste your money mate. You dont need to spend 75 quid out on a keyboard.

Does anyone even use the extra buttons they put down the sides of these keybaords? I wouldn't. I play fps and rts dont play wow and i think wow is the only thing you would use it for.

But still, why do you think the F keys are there? you got 12 hotkeys along the top which no body uses and all need gaming keybaords instead.
 
How bright is it though? And how long do the batteries last. Get wirred they are a lot better and last longer it seems as the wireless ones seem to die earlyer.
 
Stick with the wired ones.

I have had both Saitek and Logitech.

The Saitek has a much better feel to the keys , but the G11 is better illuminated.

It depends on your set up , screen brightness/glare will effect the how well the keyboard "lighting" performs.

I've got mine just below a 24" screen and the Saitek just wasn't bright enough in the dark.

In an ideal world i would like a hybrid - Saitek feel / Logitech G11 illumination.

Cheers,

if you're a serious gamer then stay wired got a G15, it's excellent, the screen is really useful like.

my friend has the saitek....i like it but the key spacing is just a bit weird for my liking, i supose you get used to that.
