Haven't tried it now, you say...

Oh, another thing that pissed me off about the orange G15... the LCD was too small!]]>May 13th 2009 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/May 13th 2009 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/
All in all, it is cool. I will keep it around for a few years to be sure. I can't afford an Optimus, so this will have to do. And I do use the LCD quite a bit, even on my old keyboard. Odd apps, like the timer when I am scriptwriting or keeping track of my project hours. I use the vent interface when in MMO a lot. And the LCD is detailed enough to inspire me to write some applets to monitor my Maya and After Effects renders. I am even wondering if there is a way to set up a webcam in my infants bedroom and pipe that feed directly to the keyboard. That would be great for my nighttime monitoring of her.

Maybe mostly fluff, but I think it will sell well over the long haul.

Definitely a good purchase if you, like me, run a home business and can use it as a tax write off anyway. ]]>May 13th 2009 11:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/May 13th 2009 12:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/

But this is coming from someone who is still using the stock mac chiclet keyboard (for the record much prefered the clunky old one.).]]>May 13th 2009 11:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/May 13th 2009 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/
I picked up the $130 G19 headset, and I think it's $60 overpriced.]]>May 13th 2009 11:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/]]>May 13th 2009 12:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/
As to the app crashing...the only problem I've had with it is that if I log out of one character, sometimes when I log into a different one the WoW app won't reset itself. Other than that, I haven't had any of the apps for the LCD display crash, and I'm also using Vista x64.]]>May 13th 2009 12:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/May 13th 2009 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/13/logitechs-totally-rad-g19-gaming-keyboard-now-on-sale/And even more expensive too, again what I said above.

What makes this worth $180? I don't get it.

Shortcut buttons on a keyboard are a waste of space usually.
