My Saitek has just packed in, i noticed the Saitek Eclipse 2 is out of stock, and has no ETA.

Can anyone shine any light on this?

Thanks

Eclipse 3 is around the corner I think, so doubtful.

Ah right, i'll hold out for a while with this compact 'Advent' keyboard then.

Seems pointless RMAing a keyboard

Thanks

Got any links???

Was also considering getting a new Saitek II but looking doubtful, if this is the case.

Eclipse 3 looks ugly, Actually - a lot of Saitek stuff looks so bad.

Its on their website.

Agreed!

Hopefully it won't be to expensive because I want one!

Nice! Looks a lot like the saitek cyborg, let's just hope it's not really big.

it looks like a much more refined version of the Cyborg!

the cyborg is like a 1970's cylon-toaster, and the Eclipse III is like a 2005 sexy cyborg blonde sex-machine

I think their other keyboard looks better

I hope it isnt going to be expensive, because it has gotta replace their mainstream gamer range Eclipse I and II so hopefully be around £30.

Does look good and there previous stuff aint bad.

I got the Eclipse 2 but number three looks very tasty.

oh, they joined the "lets make a keyboard too big to fit on the average persons desk" club.

does look nice tho.

Looks like it'll be competing with the G15 and 11, I want one ... time to upgrade my Eclipse I!
