I bought a saitek gaming keyboard and the light stopped working properly after two weeks. I also heard that theres a new one that is comin out so I returned it and i'll just use this 10 dollar compUSA keyboard for the time being.

the new saiteks main difference is the laser etched keys. that way the key function lights up as well

.
if they were not so damned expensive i would consider giving my saitek to my wife & getting the new one.

I've never even seen those 2. My logitech elite keyboard has been good to me.

kelticknight · Mar 22, 2005, 12:47 AM

they dont sell those black saitek gamer keyboards on this side of water yet,only silver ones

mike2h · Mar 22, 2005, 01:46 AM

they just came out with new 'eclipse' vers. it is black as you have already noted, & seeing as how it has just been released i would give it a week or 2 to become readily available.
