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

Re: Illuminated 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
