A10 Posted October 9, 2005 Author Share Posted October 9, 2005 diNovo is much better looking than G15... G15 looks cheep to me... Like a child toy... 586644404[/snapback] True the G15 doesn't have the mimalistic sexy looks the diNovo has, but I actually like the design black keys surrounded by a silver inlay with black trim, blue back lit keys with some orange backlit thrown around. To each his own I guess it looks great in person; pictures from myself or Logitech will not do it justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconboy Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 i got a quick question... ive seen that lcd on a couple of keyboards now that logitech has and they always state "will notify you of an instant message or new email" does this mean that it just says "you have a new email" or "you have a new instant message", and are you able to read the actual message on the LCD and then possibly respond, i mean the keyboard is right there, so i thought it made sense! ;) hehehehe i wish i could lie in bed and then just lean over and check if i had any messages, reply or go back to sleep, and yes i am THAT lazy! Im thinking of getting the logitech MX5000 keyboard/mouse set- does anyone have any experience with that set? thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerm Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 It looks very tacky to me in the light, but looks ok in the dark with the blue leds. Wouldn't spend that much on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebi Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 was thinking of getting this keyboard and the G7 mouse just hope they produce the mouse in another color scheme cause the green is ugly :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of right now it's limited in it's usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marduk Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I'm tempted to buy one but almost feel bad buying one that isn't ergonomic for so much money, from what I hear the natural and ergo boards aren't hard to adapt too either, hmmm too bad its not ergo!

OxideNOS Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 is it wireless? (does it uses lazer?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyatic Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 If only Logitech would come out with something like the Nostromo from Belkin. I forced myself to play with that when I first found it and now... I can't STOP using it. It's the best game controller BAR NONE. You can assign macros or anything you want -- it's just too kickass!

Smigit Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 is it wireless? (does it uses lazer?) 586651200[/snapback] why would a keyboard use lasers? and no its not wireless unfortunatly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalN. Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 is it wireless? (does it uses lazer?) 586651200[/snapback] no, but the MX5000 combo is wireless with mostly the same keyboard. and why the hell would it be laser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espada04 Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Its a bit different.. both in looks and price.. lol 74CDN compared to 299.99CDN.. (even though it comes with bluetooth MX1000 mouse) haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psydeath Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 ive been keeping an eye on this keyboard but im not sure, i think it might be too big for my desk. im using a ms keyboard thats similar in size to this http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseand...ls.aspx?pid=030 and i only have about 1 inch left on the desk tray im using. can you possibly give me some measurements of the keyboard?

esco Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 great review, I'm going to pick one up tomorrow with the Creative X-FI. Is there any reason to dump my mx1000 for a G5? I personally think there's more convenience in regards to buttons with the mx1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esco Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 hmm, I'll consider it then Anyways, I picked up both the X-FI and G15 today. The G15 is an amazing keyboard. The buttons are so silent, the backlight is great, and the info screen is awesome. It cycles through the Clock, Performance Meter, and Media (like what song is playing in iTunes.) Highly recommended. I also recommend the Creative X-FI. It's an amazing sound card. My sound has jumped in performance from my Audigy 2. I feel sorry for having my Klipsch Promedia Ultra 5.1's for having to endure the Audigy 2 while there sound like the X-FI available :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A10 Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 I just got the Saitek Eclipse...dammit I should have just got this then... 586664155[/snapback] Don't worry it's still a great keyboard I had one before my G15 besides the lcd, multimedia keys, and the macro stuff both are on the same level keyboard wise. It also has a smaller profile than the G15 more desk space is a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
