Just ordered a Saitek Eclipse

A friend has one, he loves it. I don't much care for the blue LEDs, but I dont like LEDs at all. In fact, my computer has NO LEDs hooked up to the motherboard headers.
 
Got one myself. Replaced a.. uh ::looks at other computer:: Microsoft... internet keyboard? Eh, whatever.

Keys feel "snug", which is nice. It's USB, which I'm not too sure I'm happy about (I might be having an issue with XPs "Choose how to boot" thing and it). It's not overly large, and the handrest is removable/adjustable.

As for the lights... they are neither amazing nor crap. In a dark room, they shine through just fine, and look rather purty. In any other conditions, they are just sorta.. I dunno, blurred. Half of the light doesn't make it through the keys in some places, or something. Doesn't look terribly good, but it's not like you spend that much time staring at the KB, and if it bothers you too much there's a low power/off setting for 'em.

So far, I'm perfectly happy with it. Now, if I get $50 or so worth of life out of it, everything will be peachy.
