This sure is one neat gadget but that's all it would be for someone like me who almost never looks at a keyboard. I'm a gamer, I play fps games most of the time so what would be convincing to get one of those over a regular well working microsoft keyboard? :ninja:

Some games have applets where you can access certain "extra" or quickly accessible information. Like you can gte a full listing of all your ammo types or in World of Warcraft you can view your stats (HP, Spirit, Strength, Crit rate etc....) in case you don't really wanna open up your character sheet and what not.

Sadly game support for it is lacking. I mainly use it with a program called Everest to display my System usage and temps of my CPU, GPU and hard Drives.

I got my G15 last year from a friend who develops applets for the G15. She had one for RF Online and Guild Wars going and I think WoW. Though I think she concentrates mostly on the WoW Emulator Server hack now.

Is the new G15 still only available at list price ($100) or are places carrying the new one for the same price as the old one (around $70 + the occasional rebate)?

I paid $99.99 plus tax for a total of $105.99. The old one was $9 cheaper at Best Buy. It was $90.99.

geh orange color is hideous

and it seems they removed the silver buttons and usb places at the top? can't see anything near the lcd screen from those pics

Silver Buttons are there. Some are black now. On the old one they were silver. And USB connections are right at the top back. The orange is actually easier to see then the blue I think.

Dunno about the UK release date. For Canada not sure I picked mine up at Bestbuy so I'd say their or Future Shop might have it.

I'll work on the review later on tonight or tomorrow should be up by then. If I buy it I'll also have a review up for the HP C8180 everything but the kitchen sink AIO printer.

Indeed it is a very nice looking keyboard, but different people different tastes I suppose.

As far as the LCD being smaller yes it is not by much but the difference is noticable,but not a detractor it's much easier to read now the text is much crisper than with my gen 1 board.

jesus this is so ugly :x

hugs his shiny new apple keyboard :whistle:

Yea for you!!! Yep the alu and white do look nice, but I'd like a little more features if I'm going to spend 40 something dollars for the wired or 70ish for the wireless. Not too mention the keys aren't the best for touch typist the key tops are nearly flat.

    • Cuktech 10 Ultra charger review: big display, four ports, 110W total power

      By 31067 · Posted

      I'm content with my dual charger for now, but this actually sounds quite nice - and it's less expensive than I was expecting. As for the company, they can name themselves "Nazirapist" for all I care.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      While I miss Outlook for a couple of small things, I use Thunderbird now because I don't like how MS wants to force you to change things.

      Chrome has history of being the browser everyone uses because Internet Explorer sucks, not realizing that Edge changed that, but people got into the habit of using Chrome. I use Brave and I've never been happier with a browser. It does what it is meant to do and gets out of the way.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
