What is a good keyboard for gaming, as in, more durable. I've just had a second G15 go bad on me (well, the feet break. And logitech, being morons, can't just send me replacement feet. Nooo. They replace the keyboard. They replaced it one already, and I had to send the old one back at my expense. The feet just broke again...and I'm sick of it.) The FEEL of the keyboard was OK, but nothing special. I never used the LCD (Zune software doesn't support it) and the macro keys went without any use.
I'd prefer a backlit keyboard, but more importently, I want something DURABLE. I want it to take a little punishment and still work fine. I've been looking at the Lycosa from Razer and the Eclipse II, but I also see the Cyborg (uhhh...what is that thing?) I see some people saying the Lycosa's backlighting is poor in daylight, but others say it has been fixed. What is up here?
For the Eclipse II, I see people saying the paint on the keys wears off, what's up with this - has it been improved, or is this an ongoing/common issue?
All in all, one thing I will NOT go without are media keys - I love having them (volume, pause/play, stop) and cannot live without them.
I'm hoping to grab a KB tonight at best buy, but if someone wants to recommend some exotic KB that can only be found on newegg - go ahead.
Thanks!
