This company Global Lighting Technologies is working on providing better LED-based backlighting for keyboards and other devices like the Razer Lycosa above. They’re hoping to use fewer LEDs so there’s less of a power draw, as well as making the backlight layer thinner. I think I actually prefer an amber or sort of wine-colored glow, blue is a little too “extreme gamer” for me.

I’ve got a red lit saitek eclipse and it sucks, i always turn the lights off because you can only read the keys at certain angles…it’s weird. mainly because the keys are a silver/grey…so being a light color…with light shining through it, just awful. if they were black keys like in that razer up there i’d be better…
anyway, I’ve changed subjects….Cool!
