New Keyboard but which one?!

Im getting a lycosa Good keybaord

be careful with the lycosa keyboards with rubber coated keys

the "mirror" version should be a bit more durable

That's an isolated case though or are there any other known? I did not go for the lycosa because of this pic, but looking back I might have rushed that decision.

i guess it may depend how you type or if you have long nails perhaps *shrug*

woah nice keyboard

but I have a friend with a lycosa, he has it since it's release and he didn't have this problem. the only problem he has is the touchpad which is not working but this issue has been fixed already by razer.

I use the Logitech Wave keyboard, very good . Comfortable for typing also.

ewww, if it werent for the professional print, I'd say it looks painted.

I've got the Lycosa too, and i haven't experienced anything like that picture. To me it looks it it's purposefully scratched off for some reason.. That pattern definately doesn't look like what you would expect from heavy use.

Anyway, i have had mine for half a year now, and i hasn't got a scratch. Those low-profile buttons are incredibly responsive to game on and just as incredibly comfortable to type on. The backlight is a little insufficient if you're sitting in an overly lit room and doesn't know the placement of the buttons by heart. But to me it is not a problem at all. Not having tried the arctosa, i can just say that the rubber buttons are pretty durable and really comfortable.

I'd say definately go for it.
