This keyboard form Logitech costs around $100; The best feature is illuminated buttons.

Features:

• illuminated buttons
• 3 light levels : off and another 2 light levels.
• 2 additional USB slots in top of the keyboard
• volume wheel in top middle
• play/pause forward/backward buttons for media players.
• mute button
• 54 shortcut keys (one button can trigger multiple button actions, open an url, an application, etc).

Bad things

• keyboard is very heavy
• very big
• some buttons icons have different location, like @ and # , these two are next to right shift button.
• special buttons do not work without the Logitech software running.
• volume wheel is too glossy and you do not have good grip on it, it would be easy to add rubber or some textures over it.
• left shift button is smaller and causes a disconfort if you are used to a longer button there and next ot it there is the button “|\” that is next to backspace for ordinary keyboard, so you will be pressing this button by mistake.
