Got a Saitek Eclipse 3. Have to return due to faulty keys from q to p most of the time. This will be the 2nd time i have to send it back. Should i get same replacement or diff one?
 
I had the first G15 since it pretty much came out and it was great until a spilt some beer over it. I then got the REV2 one and I love it, smaller than the first and I like the orange :)

Can't go wrong with logitech really. I hate my razer mouse, I gave in to the brand although I've never tried a lycossa :)
 
Lycosa is beyond great. Get it, you won't be disappointed.

Oh, unless you're into super clean pristine setups, in which case DON'T get the Mirror Edition, as you will spend a lot of time wiping fingerprints off of it.

Agreed.

My mouse, keyboard and mic are logitech. All brilliant. I was also using logitech speakers but I upgraded to some floor stands. For the price I paid for them (about £20) they were absolutely brilliant. Logitech are also brilliant for sorting out replacements.
 
just got me a G15 version2 for christmas. Loving it so far and the lcd screen is a nice gadjet. It's a little on the expensive side at around £65 new http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=KB-117-LG

If that's out your budget, you could go for the old G15 version 1 (now badged G11) with the blue keys minus lcd screen for around £40. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=KB-090-LG

Either way, as stated you can't go wrong with logitech. The keyboards come with 2 year warranty, and if it does go wrong, logitech will send you a new one for free.

I agree.

However, if you're a heavy user, look elsewhere. I'm on my second one in less than a year because the coating on the keys keeps wearing off. Admittedly, I'm a web developer who works from home so the keyboard is being typed on for at least 16 hours a day. It took 1.5 years for my old G15 to have the same problem though.
 
Grr jungle place wont replace a 2nd time so have to get a refund, hope no credits as that would make me mad as hell.

So recommend me somit for 33 quid aprox, no more than 35 tho. Want same features as current keyboard tho, good lighting, good keys quality and feel, multimedia keys for wmp. More than 1 colour illumination.

I love my G15. I love the macro buttons they are handy for some games (I just run out of key bindings) also I love the LCD screen its brilliant, I love seeing the vent details on it ( I know you can run overlay mode but its not the same! )
 
My brother had a saitek keyboard last christmas, after six months keys were getting stuck etc. He now has a G11, its huge because of the extra macro buttons but does look good. Although, who really needs those extra buttons?

I bought myself the black cherry:

Less is more! keys feel great, the volume and media buttons are well placed and it only costs 14 quid!
