Looking for some help and advice!

Heya, been browsing these forums for a few months, but this will be my first post here. I put in my order for a Sager 8660, and cant wait till I finally get it, whenever that will be! I'm looking for some advice on accessories for it.

I've read alot of scattered reviews and posts on various items, but I'm still rather unsure about what to get. I'm looking at a cooler, usb keyboard, usb headset, and a usb hub.

Basicly, I want to plug everything into the hub and when I want to take the lappy with me, worry about a single usb, rather then well...alot! I'm curious what brands, and specificly what models everyone feels are best, but most importantly why. Cost is of some concern as I dont want to be spending another $1000 on just accessories, but I'm willing to spend the cash if the product is well worth it.

Anywho, I'll just list off what I was considering, real quick;

Keyboard - Saitek Eclipse II
Cooler - Zalman 2000
Headset - No idea (I'm used to a 5.1 surround system, not sure what to do here)
Usb Hub - Belkin 7-port with a power supply?

Well, thats essentially it...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

 

I have the Eclipse II on my desktop and it is a very well built unit that looks great. I highly recommend it.

 

Thanks, he Eclipse II looks like a straight forward keyboard, which is what I like about it, alot of the other lighted ones out there just seem to busy, too complicated for my tastes. Glad to hear its not junk or something

I'm really hoping someone can point me towards a decent usb headset, good performance and comfortable for long usage. Its the one thing I'm not sure about in the slightest.

 

This is the one my friends and I use. I find it to be very comfortable and the sound quality is top notch. Some complain of the mic loosening up after a while but none of ours has that problem. Hopefully others will speak up and provide you with their favorites and recommendation so you have something to compare.
