    should be available now, I just googled it and it was avaialble at circum city. Price is a tad high for a wired keyboard at $53 but Im sure thats because its a circum city price. Newegg or other online retailers should have it available for a bit less.

    i paid $45 for my mx1000 so $50 for keyboard is kinda high. i would pay about $35 for it. i might get it at the end of the summer and give my KB to my bro. i hate when i play games in the dark and then have a brain fart and forget where some keys are.

    It works great, like I said Im using the silver model and I love it at night, I can watch a movie with the lights out and still see the keyboard if I need to adjust the sound\contrast\resolution\aspect ratio of the movie on the fly.

    Wow....

    I still am for the cheap $4 beige keyboard method, as they last forever and I can eat food or whatever over it and not worry about it...but this looks interesting for a rig I won't do that on...

    I heard you can't see the keyboard letters with the lighting on though...

    In the dark ofcourse not, during the day you can turn the lights out and you can see th letters just fine.

    I have the Saitek Gamers keyboard. I like mine cause it came with the command pad. The Eclipse is awesome cause the keys light up. Now if they would only combine the 2.
