    So, I'm confused about the keys. By "long-life", do they mean it's a mechanical keyboard? Didn't see anything about which switches it uses (if any).

    From the reviews it sounds like it is mechanical.

    They might be just really firm, from what I see:

    I got on this deal from newegg and just got it today. So far so good. Its pretty "clanky" so it could be mechanical... is there a way to tell? Don't mechanical's usually have a key remover? I am having a hard time finding the drivers online for the keyboard... just tossing that out there.

    *Edit - As far as drivers... The logitech generic gaming one works... same as the one for the other hardware items (headphones, mice, etc...)
