Well after much anticipation i bought one and really like it.

The wrist wrest was annoying so got rid of that and lighting is quite good.

The only problem i have and i am thinking of sending it back due to is that some of the have to be pressed quite hard to work.

Mainly its the "o" which is quite annoying.

As anyone else got / had the same problem.

I'm thinking with a bit of use it may loosen up, on the other hand i paid for a working keyboard.

What do you reackon?

If it wasnt for the dodgy keys i would give it a 7/10.

Right so just concentrating on the "o" for a minute.

If i press the "o" in the bottom left hand corner of the key it doesnt work any other part of the key and its fine.

Bit peeved now, think ill return it and i wont be buying another.

Right checked all the keys and the following dont work correctly: i,k,m,o & p.

After reading a few reviews, a few said the painted keys start to wear away.

Other than that i would have got one myself as i think it looks better.
 
Yep, totally miss read (was going to blame it on being late, but just noticed the time on your post :p)

Ill send it back.

Why do you want lights in your keyboard? I never look at my keyboard whilst typing or gaming, infact I never look at my keyboard :o Funnily enough I have lights in my keyboard, Saitek Ecplise Red, because I thought it looked cool. Now I realise how useless it is :p

Well its just an added feature for me, i didn't buy it for the lighting.

It does however come in handy in BF2 when I jump of a building and I'm looking for the parachute (9).
