G110
The G11 was a pretty damn good keyboard from Logitech that I used a lot. That one's going bye bye though. Not to worry, as Logitech today announced the Logitech Gaming Keyboard G110 to take its place. This little baby has customizable backlighting, integrated USB audio, programmable G-keys, and USB ports.
Like recent Logitech offerings, the G110 will let you customize the color of the backlighting to what you want. With 12 programmable G-keys and 3 modes, you have 36 different macros that you can program in to the keyboard. Another great feature brought over from their last keyboard is the ability to switch off the Windows and Context Menu keys so you don't accidentally get kicked out of a game into another Window when pressed.
One interesting feature is integrated audio USB which takes any regular headset and mic and turns it into a USB audio device. So, you don't need to plug it into the computer and the computer will think your regular headset is a USB headset even though it's not.
It's going to retail for $79.99 and it's shipping in November.
