Got myself one of those:

Glows in the dark, whee. very slick... especially when working late night and not having to have a light on.

and how is it? I saw one in a store a couple months ago and I was intrigued.

Wicked looking keyboard.

Very slick. Very low profile, the keys have similar characteristics to a laptop keyboard, but have longer travel. You can get em in white, black, and with different glows. Mine glows ocean blue. $90.

is it too bright? I would assume something like that would be hard on the eyes.

Hmmmm I guess you look at the keys while typing eh ?

Not at all. Quite the dimm light actually. Just enough to see the keys ok, but not too bright to annoy you.

No I don't. But sometimes I need those special keys and I don't know where to find them. It's just a useless toy. But it matches my computer case. :)

I am still surprised why alot of keyboard manufacteurs haven't though about this before

It's been done in modder communities for ages, but I guess the computer has an ongoing rennaisance as an art object. Soon Dell will ship it with their PCs. ;)

I bought one of those a few months ago.. I am a sucker for a gimmick, but I didn't like typing on it, so I gave it to my girlfriend. *sigh*
