A Star Wars Keyboard With LCD Touchpad
If you are in need of the perfect keyboard for playing Star Wars: The Old Republic, or if you are just a fan of Star Wars anyway, this may be the keyboard to own.
Thinkgeek is selling the keyboard, which includes a multi-touch screen an ten configurable tactile keys. According to the site, the track-panel can be set to either respond to direct gesture input or display interactive information. You can even outsource your IM chat to the display, preventing it from taking up valuable screen real estate on your main display.
The device was designed in keeping with "Star Wars themed aesthetics," and comes with gold-backlit key illumination. It even has a gamification item as players can unlock a "unique color crystal" that changes the lightsaber blade and blaster bolts in Star Wars: The Old Republic.
And yes, the keyboard has a price and it is not cheap at $260.

outlw6669 Ugh. Flat, low stroke bubble keys.... on a $260 keyboard no less :pfff:Reply
This looks like it will feel terrible to type with and even worse to game with. -
MrMakapuu Notice they call is "Star Wars" not "SWTOR" which it was meant to play with... Either razer or EA is really digging deep in order to get Tom's to get you to buy it... So sad... They put so much into that keyboard and so little into SWTOR after the fact...Reply -
Hellbound Wait.. Doesn't Razer make this exact same keyboard? Why yes they do, and its $10 cheaper -> http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_US/pd/productID.241167600/categoryId.35156900Reply
