If you're looking for a new keyboard, headset, or hybrid keyboard then Razer has you covered with its Lycosa, Piranha, and Belkin's n52te.

I just love the Belkin n52te (tournament edition^^) hope I'll get one for me laptop (mx518 + n53te => potential killer)
The Lycosa is good lookin' too !

I'm still a G15 and G7 man, or a G15 and Razer Deathadder man when at work.

Dvs98SK · 5th Oct 2007, 17:55

I like my Saitek Eclipse personally.

GuardianStorm · 5th Oct 2007, 18:52

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

i luv the keyboard and am looking for a new keyboard... but... I WANT RED!!

my whole rig is black-red theme... and with my red anarchy copperhead, a red lycosa would feel right at home!

i have the n52, and its awesome. frag bf2/2142 like mad with that thing and the d-pad as weapon selector... BUT looks like they havent done anything to fix its biggest flaw: lack of keys.

devdevil85 · 5th Oct 2007, 19:53

I've had bad luck with Belkin.....

wuyanxu · 5th Oct 2007, 20:43

wow, that gaming keyboard looks ace! shame it's more expensive than double my current keyboard+mouse.........

i don't see the point of having a ultra expensive gaming keyboards or mouse. after all, W is still W no matter where you press it.

identikit · 5th Oct 2007, 21:49

I am so getting that Lycosa.

Stwongbad · 5th Oct 2007, 22:08

The lycosa looks sweet but the headphones dont look that good.

Whaoo nice looking keyboard. Been looking for a decent replacement for my Logitech diNovo

Gunsmith · 6th Oct 2007, 00:45

the board does indeed look nice, shame about that lit logo in the top left, but...

where there is a dremel, there is a way

Bluephoenix · 6th Oct 2007, 01:04

I prefer my Saitek Pro Gamer Command Unit.

some people prefer the ergonomics of the N52, but it always felt like perching my hand on top of a billiard ball, not at all comfortable.

Saitek F_T_W!!

Faulk_Wulf · 6th Oct 2007, 03:10

I had been looking at the n52 for a long time,
I'll just wait a bit longer and get the n52te. It looks good.
The matching keyboard looks solid too.

Personally, I-- like most others, are still drooling at this
little beauty. $1565.00 seems a bit expensive. That's $13.84 a key.
Which might not be bad for a mini 40px by 40x OLED monitor, but as a practical keyboard, its too high.

When the technology catches up to drop the cost to ~$300.00, I'll consider it.

Until then, I'll take the n52te.

EDIT: So I just checked out that Saitek Pro Gamer Command Unit and it looks awesome. And I just realized that they made the X52 Flight Set that I've been longing for. The Eclipse Keyboard doesn't look too shabby either.

r0z|3o0n · 6th Oct 2007, 03:58

Headphones look just like Sennheiser PC150's with a different sticker on the side :/

Aankhen · 6th Oct 2007, 10:53

The Lycosa looks butt-ugly to me. The n52te looks interesting; I'm not sure whether I'd want that or the Wolf King gaming keypad, though.

The Piranha just looks generic.

CardJoe · 6th Oct 2007, 14:45

I never understood the attraction of the Saitek Eclipse. It can't do anything special, looks pretty fugly and is clacky as hell in my experience...

The_Beast · 6th Oct 2007, 17:05

all of those look great
