TheTechLounge has posted a review on the Saitek Eclipse Gaming Keyboard



When I reviewed Saitek’s gaming keyboard, I said that the backlighting looked real nice, but didn’t help any with finding keys in the dark. I also said that the gaming pad was not likely to appeal to the majority of the gaming crowd.
