New keyboard

Hey guys

The saitek eclipse is showing wear with the spacebar sticking and the keys rubbing off (lol) so I was looking at new keyboards. Nothing crazy expensive like the new G19. I like high profile keys - media keys are a must (play/pause etc.)

Backlighting not a necessity as the keys usually rub off quicker, I dont game all that much any more and really cant see much point in spending extra on "gamer grade" unless it really does make a difference - no need for macro keys. Whats out there?

I've got one of these and it's been fine. Got volume control, playback etc.

Clicky

Pretty much the closest thing I could find to a normal, cheap keyboard that still had reasonable media keys.
