Otherwise, I'd get any old keyboard

yeah i was thinking the Saitek eclipse though i dont think you get the added keypad as you do with the saitek gamers, but i'm not sure if that added pad is any good anyway?

that logitech board looks horrid imo, i have read somewhere that if you have other saitek products then the keyboard takes priority and won't recognize others? sounds BS right?

i'm in uk here btw, and my price guide is around £40

I have a Saitek eclipse (great keyboard) and an old Saitek Cyborg joystick. The both work great together, no problems at all
