Now that's a neat idea, having the numpad be able to go on the left or right side.

Oooh glowy!

No USB connectors and no feet to tilt the keyboard, so it's all just fluff.

Yeah I'm quite happy with it, and it has a low price point. But get it while you can because Steelseries bought out Ideazon and I think they're discontinuing it. EB sells em still. I also have a Fang Keyset

Great if you have little desktop real estate, and it's under $30 so it don't break the bank either.

What gaming mouse are you using?

By the time my G15 stops working it'll probably be Dec 22nd 2012, and not need one :P

G19's are pretty sexy too, I just like my WASD terrain, makes things feel more natural.

I've yet to find someone happy with their Sidewinder though, usually I hear it's too big and clunky, too heavy, poorly shaped etc.

I have every mouse in the Razer line except for the mamba, and I prefer the Diamondback 3G due to its ergonomics and responsiveness. I also own a Logitech G5 but it's just a little too tall on its back arch, makes for some sloppy aiming sometimes.

Razer FTW!!
