Logitech G15 Keyboard

Lads, anybody have this keyboard (http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=314409) currently?

Couple of questions are there Vista Drivers for this Keyboard had a look on the website but couldn't seem to find any.

Is there any plans for Vista Drivers, expecially 64 bit drivers?


Cheers

I have the keyboard. You don't need a driver as such. To drive the LCD screen, you can use a freeware app called LCD Studio. No doubt there will be a Vista upgrade soon enough.

Cheers man i think ill get one so!

Just bear in mind the one Komplett sells is US layout, so your @ " and \ will all be in the wrong location. I made this mistake, but corrected it using a free app from Microsoft to generate my own keymap.

Unless you're a WoW player it's really not worth the money..sure the blue light's are fancy but there's very little apps out there for the lcd gameswise so not really a benefit.

Not really a WoW head...

Can any one make a recommendation of a similar or better keyboard?

Keyboards a keyboard, they all do the exact same thing bar a few extra buttons on some.

Well i know that much, but i was looking for a decent one with a good back lit function and media keys maybe a few other extras!

the backlights are great when you've the lights off and dont want to be searching and waiting for your eyes to focus

Playing in the pitch dark is neither safe nor normal , get a bloody light, your eyes will thank you in later life.
If you must get one though those saitek ones are supposed to be good: http://www.saitekusa.com/usa/prod/gamerskey.htm

I have one:

Looks great.
Works great.
Backlights are great.
LCD is fun to mess with.
USB ports are handy but only USB 1.1.

Havent used the G keys much at all.
Keyboard is noisy and I don't find it comfortable to type on.
In hindsight I would have went with something else.
