I just got a spam which I actually clicked on, that's the first time I've done that in about 4 years, and actually the product looks interesting, at:

ION Illuminated Keyboard

It's an "ion keyboard", backlit keys. I don't know if it's any good or not, so caveat emptor, check reviews, see ebay etc ... nifty idea though.

I use an ergonomic keyboard, but something like this might be good for my wife, so I'm giving it some thought, eg lights up the keys.

Sometimes at night I like to work with the lights low, but I can't see the keys...so this would be good for something like that.

I can't comment on the product you are questioning.

I bought this one for my brother in law he loves it...

Might I ask what type? I'm just using the keyboard on my PowerBook, but am considering getting something to speed up writing. And hopefully decrease the amount of typing errors.

I've looked for reviews. But as it turns out, keyboards are used for gaming today - not typing. Anyone know any writers reviews of keyboards?

My personal opinion is that keys are generally to heavy, theres too much resistants in each key and too much travel distance.

I've been thinking of going through the whole learning to do the wave-thing. But i'm working on different keyboards depending on home and work, so the idea of too great difference makes me hesitate. Any experience with this, anyone?

To sum up: What keyboard do you fellas use? Why? What to you think about it? What do you dream of? And have you seen any great reviews?
