Review @ ExtremeTech Keyboards are so utilitarian that it sometimes seems ridiculous to get excited over one because of its appearance. Well, we have to say that we like the Eclipse a whole lot, not only because of its stylish design and backlit keys, but also because of its sturdy feel and comfortable keys. The Eclipse II scores top marks in both form and function.
The Eclipse won't embarrass your desktop, but enhance it instead. We would have preferred a straight edged design so that it can be docked against certain peripherals, however, but most of us don't have to worry about that.
The Eclipse is offered for $69.99. That's pretty pricy for a keyboard, but the Eclipse may very well be worth it. Call us crazy for recommending it, but its tough material and cool look are something that blows other keyboards out of the water. You can't go wrong either. If you get tired of looking at its backlit keys, you can easily turn it off and still have a strong and comfortable keyboard to work with.
