    I just ordered this keyboard from Amazon ($44 from their Amazon used website. Condition is Used - Like New)

    Has anyone owned, or used this keyboard before?

    I have read the reviews, and read mostly positive reviews, some negative, some neutral. The only things I have read that I would worry about is the key letters scratching off, or smudging/keys stop working after a year or so/Touch buttons not working or going out.

    It seems like a nice keyboard for the price, and I always wanted a light up keyboard, so I am looking forward to it, I just wanted to know if anyone had any experience with this keyboard.

    I loved my original Saitek Eclipse keyboard, and recently just bought a Cyborg v.5 but no Eclipse 3. They are pretty decent quality in general and the backlighting is nice too.
