It seems that Logitech is quite on a roll these days, since, after announcing that
notebook kit yesterday, has now changed focus and launched a computer peripheral that gamers from all around the world will most likely appreciate, namely the Logitech Gaming Keyboard G110, a worthy successor of the famous G11 model.
While I won't go into any major details regarding the overall design (which is somewhat reminiscent of the G11), it's nevertheless important to point out that this gaming
keyboard provides multiple customization options, one of the coolest, at least from a visual point of view, being the possibility to choose the exact LED backlighting scheme (blue and red LEDs, with the Profiler software choosing the exact desired mix).
The keyboard also sports 12 programmable G-keys and three M-keys, which allow gamers to assign up to 36 single keystrokes, multi-key macros, or LUA scripts. Moreover, by using the MR key, one can configure macros on the fly, while the game mode switch easily disables the Windows and Context Menu keys, so that accidentally pressing them doesn’t kick one out of the game.
Another interesting feature worth mentioning is automatic game detection, which allows users to create separate custom G-key programming profiles for every game one might play, with the keyboard automatically changing the profiles, depending on the game genre.
The Logitech Gaming Keyboard G110 also provides integrated headset support, being able to work with any standard headphones or headset with 3.5mm plugs. Additionally, it sports a
USB 2.0 port, allowing users to easily plug in a flash drive without having to reach for the main desktop PC unit. Also, this port can be employed for connecting a gaming mouse, for example.
According to our sources from Logitech, the Gaming Keyboard G110 is slated to arrive in stores across Europe in January (what, no Christmas shopping?!), the estimated retail price being set at around 80 Euro (or roughly 120 US dollars).
