    I really had my heart set on Logitech's G15 Gaming Keyboard. Unfortunately, it was not available in Kuwait. To buy it from the USA, I had to wait for at least a week. For the last couple of weeks, I went on a keyboard shopping craze. I had bought a total of 3 keyboards and ended up ordering the g15 online. The closest I got to a keeper was Logitech's multimedia corded keyboard. The Dinova BT was nice, but not for gaming.

    I sold the DiNova, gave away the multimedia keyboard to a friend that we hang around with a lot where we had a shared PC with a terrible keyboard.

    To punish myself, I decided to use this plastic flexibe keyboard that sounds and looks cool. I bought the keyboard for 5 USD, yes 5! In some countries, you can't buy a pack of cigarretes for that much!

    My first impression was WOW, this is cool. Not so hot now. I am going to try and write this same sentence without looking at the keyboard, to give you an idea on what I'm going through.

    My firsy impression wae WOE\w\\\. thia is cooll.nNOR AO JOT nor. i M FIUNG TO try to write this samae senenve withiufh\ kiij\ing at the keyboars, to five you an isea wha y i am fiund hrough,
    (That WOE\w\\\ thi was me trying to backspace).

    After 30 minutes on this, I can actually feel my biceps/triceps flex.

    Conclusion: Don't judge a book by it's cover and looks can be deceiving. Always go with your first desicion and learn the importance of patience!

    Pros:

    Quite.
    Light.
    Flexible.
    Water proof (I think).
    Cheap (wouldn't really care if water ruined it).

    Cons:

    The rest of the review.




    Please pardon my spelling, with the keyboard to blame on some.
