At the very least it's a timely bit of marketing for the upcoming movie.

Lose the "Tron based" sounds and give me some alternate lighting options and I'd look into it. I need a back lit keyboard because I usually play at night in my office as not to wake the family, So I could see myself using this with the above changes...

Hmm, I might look at getting that once I get a new desktop. I kind of want the Xbox 360 Tron controller too.

I'm not sure I'd like flat keys as they described them, but I don't think the backlight would be useful for me outside of a neat gimmick, as I typically use the feel of the keyboard to find my correct place.

Don't have this, but my keyboard has clear numbers/letters on black keys, as well as a light inside so when I flick the switch I have glowing keys.


Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.

Well when I'm typing I don't have a problem knowing where keys are for the most part. BUT I use three to four different keyboards between work and home and the "f" keys plus all the other miscellaneous keys are in various configurations so it's hard to get used to where certain keys are all the time. It's not usually a big deal but it can be a hassle when I get totally off a row or something in the middle of a fight. To each his/her own though.

As far as the "chiclet" keys, I like them quite a bit. As a matter of fact my current comp at home is in a brushed aluminum case so I "borrowed" a brushed aluminum with white keys keyboard from a new mac at work recently. It uses the chiclet keys as does my work laptop and I find I like them better.

Holy run-on sentences BatKids! Sorry, I'm at work no time to get my inner grammer police outfit on...

Hmm, nice keyboard. Although it says Disney Tron keyboard so there is probably a shortcut to a Hanna Montana feed somewhere on it.
I'd order some glowy stickers for when i'm using the wireless keyboard away from the ambient light of the monitor when the visual feed is switched to 'b' to come up on the TV. Unfortunately both UPS and FEDEX want over $20 dollars for shipping to the U.K.

I've seen the Xbox360 controller as well. Personally i think the motorcycle suit looks fantastic, and a lot better than the UD replicas Ironman one... (that was rather embarrassing looking).
Those Tron motorcycle suits (available here) look pretty heroic and you'd have to have a suitably meaty ride to show it off, you know... not a pizza-delivery moped or anything.

Now all you've gotta do is to replace the light reflective and pimp it out with EL film light tape like this young-lady has.

Lose the Windows logo on the Windows key. Use the Encom logo there...

ME WANT NAO!

Still no release date and I can't find any stores taking pre-orders. Figure they want these things out on the market soon.
