Yale: #logitech_illuminated_keyboard I'm pretty happy with this keyboard - nice and quiet, perfect sized keys, good feel, and you get used to the delete key like it was nothing - especially if you don't use insert often. If you did, you'd probably be annoyed. I love the backlighting, I only wish Lenovo put backlighting into their keyboards. My next keyboard would probably be the ThinkPad USB Keyboard with TrackPoint - US English, I only wish they kept the touchpad on it - I'd be willing to pay the $20-30 extra, for sure. Nov 18, 09
