seriously dude....media buttons are fucking gay. I have a standard keyboard with nothing on it.

The one thing that pissed me off about logitech keyboards was their shittyu Function buttons...basically they put shitty functions like My Docs, My Music, Calculator etc... on the f1-f12 buttons

so if you didnt hit the function button on the keyboard, they would open them shits up...especially annoying if you forget to do it while playing a game.

I hope they fixed it. The wife has a logih4x keyboard and it seems to work fine.

Look for logitechs access keyboard...its like 20-30 bucks and has all those shitty function and media buttons...thats what my wife has.

well I mainly wanted this for the music media functions, cuz I would like to play/stop/skip my music when I play CoD or whatever. instead of having to stop it whenever I got into a game or have to minimize the window. also I just wanted a new clean keyboard, since mine is filled with cat hair and spilt food.

I know it sounds mad but it doesnt have a silver F key on it does it. Cos it wont do the multimedia cos the F1 keys are bound to it.

More the fact i think most things advertised as being "for gamers" are usually just bog standard products with a few bits and pieces tacked onto it and "gamers" label slapped onto it. The one exception i can think of is razor boomslang mice, higher dpi rating so better performance out of them.

I've been using a MS wireless keyboard/mouse for a few months, even in games... no complaints. I always thought wireless would be teh suck for gaming but its been great so far. I like the mouse because with the batteries its nice and heavy.
