Syn, have you looked at the Logitech Wave? Not really laptop-like, but still silent and very comfortable - great for long sittings.

You mean to say 15, right? 51 is a speakers system.

No idea what cox is on about.
But the razer lycosa is good, I got one for my second computer.
I also got the logitech G15, I love the lcd on that for teamspeak, plus the keys are alright to press, not as good as the lycosa though, you 'feel' the keypress better with the lycosa.

I almost bought this as a temp keyboard but decided it was a tad pricey for short term use. It was a nice board but not something I want to be using long term, the keys just didn't sit well with me.

How does this compare to the MX5500 (I think thats the one I tried).. I gave that a go today and it was decent enough but I found it to not sit well with me. I felt like I could get a better keyboard for the same price. What kind of keys does the G15 have?

Good to hear a positive lycosa review! How are the keys (touch wise, they are covered in the rubber type stuff, is that not odd? does it not get dirty or anything?).. What do they feel like to press?

They keys took some getting used to at first, certainly it's not for everyone, but the keys are nice when you use the keyboard at many hours every day for work and gaming.
Certainly you shouldn't use the keyboard if you got some sort of liquid on your fingers or tend to sweat alot in your hands because then I guess it could feel like the keys could stick to your fingers.
The keys glide down nicely with a low clicking sound, not at all like my logitech which is noisy in comparison, so if you're looking for an IBM 104 standard keyboard this isn't it.
If thats what you're looking for you should get a Das Keyboard, where you can hear a very loud clicking sound and it's just like pressing one of those old keyboards.
The lycosa is for me a more enjoyable experience and I feel like my fingers just fly around the keyboard.
Theres also the Lycosa Mirror, that doesn't have the rubbery surface on the keys, the keys are supposed to be very smooth there with a glass like surface.

The new board just arrived and WOW, I can totally see what you mean about the keys, they're so awesome to type on.. they feel great.. Its actually a rather odd feeling when compaired with all the other keyboards I've owned and tried! I am certainly happy with my purchase so far, although it will take a little bit of getting used too!
Good call Epsilon!

How much did you pay for it? I've looked here in Cro and it's about 65£, a tad bit too much for me but if you are using it constantly I guess it's not that expensive. It looks cool tho...

Its odd, in normal keyboard mode the light is dull, it almost looks like there is no light and that the lettering is painted on. However in "WASD" mode in which only the wasd keys are lit the light is far brighter, it still looks ok to me. The fading of the lights makes it though, shows the true craftsmanship of the keyboard.

I've bought from them many times before, they're a great company. It is odd that the price is so cheap, it is more expensive on some other websites.. Still, the plastic used on the keys annoys the crap out of me, so I avoided it.
I went for the shop below.

Syn, how is it for Gaming? I looked at pics and damn, now considering as well... I see they have only English versions here in IL, no Hebrew, but this is hardly an issue.
