Not a brilliant light source though, I've tried typing in the dark on a normal keyboard. :)

i've got one of the smaller versions without the keypad on the right - awesome for dimly lit lan parties and late night surfing without a light on. well, apart from the glowing fans and neons through mah lian li window :D

If, like me, you've got LEDs on your fans and neons inside your case, then this is a fantastic idea. I'm tempted to accidentally spill coffee over my current keyboard as an excuse to get one of these :D
