Let Saitek's Eclipse II Keyboard Light up Your Night

Tuesday January 13, 2009

Saitek Eclipse II Illuminated KeyboardWith the backlit Eclipse line of illuminated keyboards, Saitek already enjoyed a healthy market share of the uber-cool computing set -- those people with the latest, most interesting, and most eye-catching peripherals for their PC rig. But now, with the Eclipse II, they're blowing the lid off of their own niche market.

The Eclipse II illuminated keyboard is sleek and well crafted in silver and black, but the real attraction is the backlight, which can be changed from red to blue or purple at the flick of a switch, and all of which can be controlled via a dimmer switch. This is impressive versatility, even for a PC cowboy who's seen it all. And it's not just a gimmick -- the Eclipse II is a quality keyboard with a smooth but sturdy typing action in addition to its fancy colors.

Check out the full review for the complete rundown of the features and performance of the Saitek Eclipse II backlight illuminated keyboard.
