Whether you need to work long into the night and would rather not turn on every light in the house, you want an illuminated keyboard to pair with your home-theater PC, or you just think it looks damn cool, the Logitech Wireless Illuminated Keyboard will do the job. Its brightness automatically adjusts to ambient lighting levels, and a motion sensor turns it on when your hands are near. Logitech also makes a wired version, though it currently sells for about the same price as the wireless model, so unless you have a strong aversion to battery chargers, you should get this one.

Second,...

Read the full review →Really enjoy the feel of the keys more than anything. And although I'm disappointed most keyboards are going away from having a right-click button, the functionality is still on this one through a function key.
Read the full review →Overall one of the best keyaoards out there. I'm missing a key for the "right mouse button" (or context-sensitive menus), which is found on most keyboards.
Read the full review →I have it because it's the only keyboard that has the features I want (wireless, back-lit and number pad). I would love to have more of a selection but they just don't exist.
