    Microsoft® Reclusa™ Gaming Keyboard

    Anyone know when this will be available in the UK ?

    http://www.razerzone.com/Products/Ga...ming-Keyboard/

    I was going for a new Keyboard/Mouse, and would like to go for a combi with Microsoft Habu™ Mouse and the Microsoft Reclusa™ Keyboard.

    The mouse is already available here, around 35 with Scan.

    I want one for the "gold-plated USB ports" alone

    BTW has anyone noticed the trend towards half-height return keys now? This really bothers me tbh!

    The Habu is an awful mouse, its a microsoft version of the Razer Copperhead, basically same internal with Microsoft designed housing. Bought one from Scan which never worked properly so returned it and got the Copperhead, much happier now, its a touch more expensive but worth it imho. subsequently have found that many people on the net have problems with the Habu. The Reclusa keyboard does look good though.

    oooh that looks interesting...the Logitech G11 I quite like (don't like the LCD screen on the G15) and the Saitek Eclipse II. I may wait to see what this one is like though.

    "Reclusa" sounds a lot like recluse, which i dont think is a good impression for a gaming product. Like its designed for some gaming nerd who sits playing games in his parents basement rarely seeing the light of day.

    Hey Dangel, whats your impression of the Eclipse II? It looks like the DBs to me, I like the size and simplicity of the design, but what puts me off is the apparent uneven backlighting in the keyboard.
