Wait for razer anansi release, my advice. It can be pre ordered and for me as a Swede, it's delivered at february 8th or smthing, you can see at razers site when its delivered for u.

I got it for the lighted keys, so I could see them in the dark. works great!

ya im more after macro capability and response time i knwo my keys so dont really need to see them in the dark ya i was looking at anansi but not sure about it hard to buy something without some reviews

 

[clarkjd]

If response time is important to you, DON'T get a wireless keyboard!

Have you thought about something like this?

[ghostmob]

I am currently on the fence regarding...

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate
http://www.amazon.com/Razer-BlackWidow-Ultimate-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B003ZJ5B4I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1295556309&sr=1-2

and

XARMOR-U9BL
http://www.amazon.com/XARMOR-U9BL-Backlit-Keyboard-Illuminated-Mechanical/dp/B003XQE040/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1295556309&sr=1-2-fkmr1

I think I'm leaning towards the XArmor since it is not as wide and I don't really care about the Macro Keys.


If you don't want the back light, then you can buy the "regular" Razer BlackWidow instead.

jaguarskx any keyboards similar to http://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries- [...] B000W6IY6O one keyboard that seems to have everything i have discontinued lol xarmor looks close but

Your link doesn't work, but if you are referring to the SteelSeries 7G Keyboard, then the closest is the SteelSeries 6Gv2.

http://www.amazon.com/SteelSeries-64225-Steelseries-Gaming-Keyboard/dp/B0038X3ZVM/ref=pd_cp_e_0


SteelSeries' website doesn't even have the 7G in stock. Since it is still listed at their website, I suppose they did not officially cancel production.

Problem is that is not a mechanical keyboard unlike the SteelSeries 7G that the OP wants or the keyboards I linked to.

 

[ghostmob]
