What keyboard d'you use?

That's pretty impressive.

I have just gotten used to using my Apple keyboard (moving away from my old one as it felt very loud and started to feel uncomfortable) but this keyboard is for my MacBook so I might investigate this logitech light keyboard future thingy.

Stupid question alert, does it matter if the keyboard isn't in sunlight or can it stay charged just off normal light ? :)

It's charges on any sort of light, and will last for 3 months with no light whatsoever.

It has this cool little app which tells you how quick each light source is when you shine it on the keyboard. Hours of fun shining torches, phones, matches, penlights, tv, and so on to see the Lux rating.

I do like my K350 but typing in the dead of night especially when trolling various places the keys do make more noise than my previous keyboard (diNovo for Notebooks which cost £5 less than what the discounted K750 cost!) so I had to get a new slim board with those cool looking in-curve keys and of course no batteries!

I had the diNovo, before the K750.
 
Great thing is the unifying receiver, best piece of kit for any peripheral TBH, I just unbox the new KB, click sync and BOOM! It's already paired with my mouse too \m/

Got a Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 for Christmas. Best keyboard I've ever used, and was only £25 :)

I think I'm on my 7th or 8th of these now. Great to use, just so much as sneeze on one and keys lose functionality :(

I had a full on graveyard at one point. Use one at home and at work, love it. Find it hard to use anything else. Hope more split keyboards are on the horizon if they ever become unavailable.
 
G11.

Would move to the newest eclipse, I do use the G keys on my G11 but it's more an exception than habit. I do often use the media keys ( play/pause, next, previous, stop, volume) VERY often though and a kb is **** without any media keys imo. Would like backlight to be brighter and keys a tad easier to press.

A 1986 IBM Model M here, bought it in a charity shop for £5 ages ago. It's as ugly as sin and sounds like a submachinegun, but I'd have to spend £100 or more to get anything like as good a typing experience - no way on earth would I ever go back to a membrane keyboard, regardless of how many knobs and flashing lights it had.

It doesn't have a winkey of course, but I use SharpKeys to map the function to the otherwise useless CapsLock.

If I were buying a new keyboard, it would probably be one of these... :D
 
I use an Eclipse (UK version) at home and some generic Microsoft one at work (AUS/NZ version) and it drives me bloody nuts trying to get used to the @ and the " being in different places :mad:
 
I use an Apple keyboard, but I do miss a good old mechanical keyboard.

I'd love something like a G15 for my windows machine, as this Apple keyboard is fast becoming a pain (no print screen, media buttons, apple keyboard map keeps swapping with standard etc.), but they are just too much money.
 
An old wireless Logitech jobbie that I'm perfectly happy with. Simple old RF rather than bluetooth or anything fancy, never loses reception, batteries last for months. No backlight, but the letters are phosphorescent so they're easy to see by the light of my monitor alone.

Keys don't come off though, so it's impossible to clean, it's acquired 7 years of muck and food and crumbs and disgusting little skin flakes that have stuck together and formed little globs of me under the keys - sometimes it makes em stick in the depressed position! :(
 
I'm using a saitek eclipse 2, it's survived a large number of spillages - bottles of beer, pints of rum and coke etc... but has always come back to life eventually after drying out, taking it to bits and cleaning it out,

They're expensive but feel so nice. Couldn't go back to a rubber keyboard now lol.

I got this board with tactile MX Browns, heavenly typing experience.

Not cheap, not quiet but worth it.

Will never go back to dome board, some keyboards I type on are horrific, I don't understand how people can live with them.

Some peoples expressions when you say you spent £100+ on a keyboard, and it looks bog standard is funny. They soon realise why they are so much better tho.
 
It's a bit dated now....
G11.
I've had it 12 months now and still going strong!
All keys are still lit up, even after a couple of minor spillages.
Logitech rocks!! :cool::D
 
Saitek Eclipse II - cost much more than what it was worth when it first came out. I was ripped off.. it is a solid keyboard but you need to be in a dark room and also turn off the monitor to see the illumination of the individual keys.
