Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of PC Gaming Keyboard And Command Pad
Customer Review: Excellent keyboard!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used this Saitek keyboard for several years on both PCs and Macs, and it's an *excellent* product. It's very solid, and has a nice aesthetic design. The keys have a good, solid feel to them (but not clunky, like older keyboards).
Note that this version of the keyboard does *not* have the cut-out letters on the keys; I believe a later version did. The lighting glows around the keys, but not through them. Personally, I like this, as I've learned to type correctly, and don't look at the keyboard. The light has two intensities, as well as an "off" setting.
I've only rarely used the game pad attachment (it plugs into an RJ-style port near the keyboard's main cord), though I can vouch that it does work and, like most game pads, it has programmable buttons.
Customer Review: This keyboard rocks for gaming!
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this with a pang of guilt; thinking what a waste of money for something that probably won't improve my gaming skills or experience by one jot.
Well, I feel guilty no more. I also bought a laser mouse, but the solid, responsive Saitek gamer's keyboard is MUCH more helpful than the new mouse. And YES, I am totally having more fun and doing better at gaming now. The feel of the keyboard is totally solid, even a bit heavy - so you can mash and pound to your heart's content. It's also very responsive. When I need to shift to a new weapon or something (I am playing Battlefield 2 these days), BOOM - it's there.
Highly recommend.
Oh yeah, it's also great for typing!!

I've used this keyboard for the better part of 4 years. It's been through the gauntlet of multiple moves, countless falls and it's held up magnificently. In my search for a 2nd one, for my other gaming rig, I've come across this thread and thought I'd provide my experience. If you love the freedom of not being bound to the standard keyboard shortcuts for gaming, or never thought there was an alternative (aside from other periphs like Z-boards and the like, which tend to be more over-kill and unnecessarily packed with a bunch of useless buttons) the Command pad provides a very simple and effective alternative... One that I've come to adapt to all of my gaming needs and couldn't imagine gaming without.Customer Review: 5 stars for gaming

This keyboard is good. The macro pad is great!
good:
create macro for frequent commands in your game can take your game to the next level.
the lights are pretty fun when you play late night (watch your eyes though)
comfortable to use, wrist doesn't hurt bad.
bad:
wired. I really don't like wired since I have logitech mx duo also.
where is the mouse to go with this baby?
The price is good for someone really into game, for everyday use I don't think you need all the fancy stuff. Good Price on amazon, referred by http://www.whosave.com. happy gaming. I eagerly wait for world of warcraft.
Customer Review: Totally Awesome!

This is one of the coolest keyboards I've ever seen and used. I have no complaints at all. The backlighting is great, it has a very stylish shape. I'm building a computer for myself and I didn't want the same old keyboard that comes with every computer you see on the market. For me, this was the one that did it. The keys are quiet and I love the volume control located at the top right. Right now, I wouldn't have any other keyboard on the market.
