|
| pkcRAISTLIN |
hi kids,
my new gaming setup is currently in the works (she's gonna be seriously cool! pics coming next month...) and i need some suggestions for a reliable and accurate wireless keyboard suitable for gaming. price isnt really a concern, i would much prefer to shell out the extra $$ and get something awesome, rather than some POS that will drop out regularly.
any ideas?? |

I've got oneof these:
http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Opt...82129607&sr=1-4
works pretty well, as long as I don't let the batteries go down forever. Then it suddenly starts tttttttttttttttttpigggggggggggggg leeeeeeeeee thsssssssssssssss, but it's sudden, and obvious. Other than that, I approve. |

| cheers. whats the battery life? and it works fine unless batteries are low? i dont mind replacing/charging batteries all the time, as long as it works perfectly when all juiced up... |

| yeah, as long as the batteries are fine, no problems. I'd say they last at least a few weeks, and I use it a LOT. |

| np...now that I think about it, though, idk how you want to use it, but I wouldn't say it's got the most amazing range in the world. |

| yeah, range wont be much of an issue. probably less than 10 feet. i just want something so when i press "go forward" i move forward, or "build tier 1 point defence here" it doesnt hang for moments before my little engineer does its job. |

| well, as long as you don't have a bunch of stuff in the way, you should be fine. The batteries tend to matter more when you get farther away. |
