    Thermaltake actually making a good product for once, glad I was sat down when reading this.
    Still £100 is just too much to expect for what is essentially just a keyboard.

    Re: Reviews - Thermaltake Tt eSPORTS MEKA G-Unit keyboard

    According to the review, this is a keyboard that's not that good to type on. In which case, wouldn't gamers be better off with some dedicated gaming peripheral - like the Nostromo - and a cheap keyboard for typing on? Should get change from the £100 that this keyboards RRP'd at.

    I'm not proffering an opinion, merely asking a question.

    Don't like the looks, but the lighted keys idea is nice - I've got something similar on the Logi K800 I use day-in, day-out and it's surprising how useful that feature is.

    Career status: still enjoying my new career in DevOps, but it's keeping me busy...

    Re: Reviews - Thermaltake Tt eSPORTS MEKA G-Unit keyboard

    I think at £100, it's missing too many things. I would expect a keyboard at £100 to be pretty perfect.

    Two things I'd be interested in is full keyboard backlighting as Biscuit suggested and better keys. But it does list that the keys are Cherry mechanical keys, so I don't see how typing should be worse.

    I think I need to question this review a bit as it's rated 4 stars and from looking at the pros and cons I wouldn't rate it more than 3.5.
