... a little help here ...

I have a Lo_itech K800 (brand new) that I hate. In fact, the "G" key is screwed up (and I rarely use the letter "G" except during emer_encies). I need a new, _ood keyboard and I've been searching with little or no positive results. But first, please allow me to tell you a little bit about how I use my keyboard.

1. I use Avid Pro Tools (for those unfamiliar, it's a recordin_/mixin_ software). Er_o, I need the number pad section.
2. I type on ChiefsPlanet.
3. I also type other stuff (and quite a bit of it).
4. I'm lookin_ for a wireless keyboard (preferably, anyhow).
5. Price is not an obstacle.

I've been told that "mechanical" keyboards are nice. People tell me that the tactile experience is superior (I wouldn't know since I've never had one). However, I am not a "_amer" and all the mechanical ones I've seen online appear to be desi_ned for playing _ames, it appears.

Any advice would be _reatly appreciated.

I bought this and really like it. It does take a Bluetooth connection.

It is small and doesn’t take up a ton of space. Works well. Good feel. I run a bunch of numbers and sign off on the 10 key.

I should note I have a surface pro tablet I bought it for and the Bluetooth nukes my wifi because they both run on 2.4 GHz. Sounds like 5GHz WiFi will fix that.

EDIT forgot the link.

I don't think bluetooth will work (probably should have mentioned that), Mr. Buehler445 ... on account of the wifi issue you mention.

But I _reatly appreciate your help, man. I had no idea that findin_ a keyboard could be so damn difficult.

I wholeheartedly agree with the people telling you about the superior tactile experience of mechanical keyboards. It's not just for gaming. Typing is better with mechanical. Definitely do it.

I have the precursor to this mechanical keyboard. It isn't wireless, but I like it. I have the brown key version (which is less noisy than the blue). Mine only has one backlight color (blue). I'm not sure if this one is always multicolored or if it can be color selected. The backlighting can be dimmed or turned off if you don't want it.

The term "gaming" gets thrown around these days when in reality the product has nothing to do with gaming. It's simply marketing bullshit to tack on a few extra bucks.

I bought a Corsair Strafe "Gaming" Keyboard a couple years ago when it was on sale because the sale made it at least $20 cheaper than any other backlit mechanical keyboard I saw. What is "gaming" about it? Not a ****ing thing. I guess if you want it came with different colored W, A, S, D keys so there you go... gaming!

I can't vouch for this product but it has solid reviews and for $45 you get mechanical brown switches (but from what I read these switches compare more closely to a Cherry MX Red switch which have no tactile feedback), backlighting, and its wireless.

He needs a number pad. Otherwise, it looks like a pretty good deal.
