Keyboard choices, advice please

Inb4 bumblebee and her massive rants on mechanical keyboards, YES IM GOING MECHANICAL.



The current choice is the Razer Black widow ultimate.

It has a list of things i really want.

• Black keyboard
• Blue LED
• Mechanical switches
• USB port
• USB soundcard built in (for LAN use - not a neccesity)
• Easy to use Macro keys
• Standard key layout - i HATE keyboards where its altered, or the keys are a different size to normal.
• Compact size - keyboards that are three feet wide due to 5 rows of G keys and 12 feet tall due to an LCD are out. this thing has to fit on cramped desks at LAN events.
• Media Keys are a must

Things i dont like

• Price
• Noisy keys - hell they advertise its as loud as a mouse click, that worries me. a lot.
• Media keys are controlled through a Fn key. its ok, but i prefer dedicated keys.

So, does anyone have any alternatives that i can buy in australia, that meet my requirements?


edit: G19 is ruled out due to it requiring external power. so please dont suggest it. (yes, i know its not mechanical - but its a similar price range)

 

Keyboard choices, advice please

I love mechanical keys. I still use a Model M keyboard. I suggest that. The keys are noisy like all mechanical keyboards, but it is worth it. FYI I bet the Razor new mechanical keyboard is noisy! I suggest the Model M with quiettouch. http://pckeyboards.stores.yahoo.net/customizer.html
