Product Description Good intel and proper gear are the keys to victory. With the Logitech G15 keyboard, you get both.

You can also create useful macros on the fly that play back with a single press of one of the six G keys. As every key features illuminated characters, with three levels of brightness, you can keep playing late into the night.

Great Keyboard August 28, 2008 Really like the fuctions on the LCD dispay. Very useful when gaming and a must for ventrillo users.
Keys are a little small but I'm getting used to it.
Overall very well build. Fantastic price on Amazon too
Expensive and haven't found much use for the fancy features yet August 21, 2008 I bought a Gateway P-6831 FX gaming laptop and I absolutely hated the position of the Fn key - I wish it were between L ctrl and the Windows Key rather than in the far back left corner. I never got used to it after trying for over two weeks. I noted that I never play games except at home, so I decided to go for a docking station type setup with a laptop cooler, USB hub, this keyboard and a Logitech G5 mouse.
This keyboard layout took a little getting used to. I'm used to having my hand hover over the left side while gaming with WASD. Typing is fine since my hands are better aligned. I would sometimes be hitting the G6 button instead of L ctrl, but after a mistake, it's quickly fixed for the rest of the session. Though, the possibility of making the error at the start of a session always exists.
I haven't found much use for the LCD or G macro keys. I don't even look down at my keyboard and it's resting on a keyboard tray so half the time it's hidden by the desk. I haven't got a feel for the G keys, so I would have to look down to make sure I was hitting the right key. I sometimes missed my esc key and hit G1 and that could cause a lot of problems.
In the end, I disabled the G macro keys, don't even look at the LCD, have the windows key disabler permanently switched on, and use the media key functions instead of the ones found on my laptop. Over 2x the price just for the backlight and glow that matches my laptop basically.
I've looked on G15 fan sites for plugins for the LCD and macro ideas for the games I played, but I haven't found anything useful beyond what I did with a normal keyboard and what I can normally bring up on my screen in an instant.
Solid Backlit keyboard August 2, 2008 I had been looking for a backlit keyboard for a long time, but most of them seem to be very pricey. I finally found this one on sale for about half off and it's excellent. The key action is very smooth and quiet and the keys feel solid. The backlight is nice and I have no problems reading the keys at night. I have only used the LCD a little bit, but do far it has been very useful. I like the feature to turn off the windows key, who hasn't hit that in a game and been pulled out to the desktop! I'm very happy with the purchase and would buy another.

Awful Keyboard July 24, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Sent this back as defective.Anytime I would play Age of Conan the WSAD keys would bug out and my char would stop moving right. I have a feeling it was due to the poor design of the keyboard with the lights underneath not letting enough pressure hit key.
