Digital camera reviews of SteelSeries Zboard Gaming Keyboard
Digital camera Review: Awesome for Gaming
Summary: 5 Stars
Works great for my World of Warcraft game time. I should have had this key board a long time ago! It is easier to make all of the moves that I need to make and do all of the things that I need to do. I have lots of extras with this keyboard that i don't have on a regular keyboard. It is awesome - every warcrafter should have one.Digital camera Review: Awesome new innovation!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was skeptical, at first about this product. I purchased it as a bundle with the Age of Conan keyset (which included a $20 rebate so I got that keyset for free). I did this as a pre-order and the z-board came about a week before the AOC keyset. I had been playing Call of Duty 4 so this was the first game I tried with the z-board and the "gaming" keyset. Whoa, very awesome. It was a new dimention in my gaming experience. Not only was the keyboard easy to install but it had so many features that I was overwealmed. The keyset itself could be programmed easily for COD4 with a simple mouseclick. All the special keys were mapped and in very finger friendly places. The keyset itself was ergonomically designed for ease with larger movement keys and rounded keys for ease of use. You can even program your own hotkeys and multiple key commands! This product is awesome! The regular keyset is smooth and very responsive. I'm typing this review on it now. There are specialty keys at the top as clear buttons that give you easy one touch access for getting to the z-board website, opening up a web window, the calculator, lists, mail, and all sorts of others. As an added bonus the base itself has 2 USB ports in it so you can quickly add a mouse, flash drive or other USB item. The z-board is very sturdy and well made. Lots of thought has gone into this product and there are many keysets add ons out there to purchase. The very nice thing is that each keyset has it's own memory to remember your programmed keys and pre-programmed keys. Just drop in your keyset and go. I love this product and give it the highest rating. Easy to use, updates on the web, easy to install, smooth key operation, and soooo many special features they are too numerous to name. Check out the z-board website for product info. Just remember that there are two versions a standard keyboard plug (you know, the round one) and a USB one. GET THE USB one. I have heard horror stories about the regular keyboard one. I have had zero problems with installation, use, or with any of the keysets. If you want THE BEST (in my opinion) gaming keyboard and most adaptable keyboard (I say this generally because they have a Photoshop and other "work-type" keysets available too!) this is the one for you.Digital camera Review: Awsome

I bought this hoping to make World of Warcraft easier to play. It does but for the life of me I'm not a macro programmer so there's lots of features that I still don't use like the extra row of buttons to the top edge of the board. And I use print screen regularly and I haven't figured out how to program it into the board.
The Technology is cool but a bit delicate so take care switching the keyboards and Z board takes great care in the manual it state this fact. It seems well enough made if you take this precaution.
I also bought the WOW board and found that although it moves the quick links into groups and marks them well enough, that really doesn't matter to a person able to use a regular keyboard well.
It's a good product just not really my bag.
