Logitech Illuminated Keyboard..

[admoo]

..anyone have one? I'm seriously considering getting an illuminated keyboard for night time use. I currently have a Logitech Wave and love it, but I find myself stabbing at buttons in the dark hoping I'm hitting the right key.

Is the Illuminated comfortable to use? And how bright are the keys?

I suppose it would be cheaper to become 'pr0' at touch typing, but meh

Thanks for all the replies guys

I have the Illuminated Keyboard. I really like it, but it's expensive. The feel is great (short key travel), in the same vein as Apple keyboards. It's a scissor switch keyboard, with very good illumination and looks the part. It sits pretty flat on the desk and that part takes some getting use to.

I'd recommend a G11 instead, if you just want a good keyboard with illumination, with nothing too fancy.

I think this is what draws me towards the Illuminated. It just looks really smart, ad well as the functionality I need.

Thanks for pointing out the G11, I didn't realise it was such a bargain on OcUK!

Thanks again for all the replies it's been most useful!

The Luxeed keyboards are amazing, but I can't justify spending £120+ on a keyboard.

I might take the plunge soon, or wait and see if anyone will buy me a nice keyboard for my birthday in a few weeks. Though I'm not sure anyone will buy me a 'stupid boring keyboard' as a present

I've been thinking about it some more, and I think I'm gunna go for a G15 it seems more practical than the Illuminated.

One question though - is there a button to set the brightness on it? Can you even change the brightness of the keys?

Thanks
