What ever you do, don't get the Sidewinder keyboards. On mine the keys started to stick and become unresponsive in about a month. I personally own all 3 of the Saitek Eclipse and they are all great keyboards. Very soft touch and very responsive. ( I went through a period of trying various keyboards)

I have the G19 right now. The G110 is the same thing without the LCD screen. I like my G19 because you can customize the color to just about anything you want. It's pretty comfortable and feels the same as the Saitek Eclipses. The only thing the bugs me sometimes is that sometimes the drivers can be buggy, but I think the latest drivers and software fixed a lot of the bugs it had.

If I had to choose between the ones you listed, I would choose the G110 because you can program more keys on it. Logitech has a lot of templates you can load for the more popular games out there as well.
