Eluminx Keyboard - Page 2

27th May 2003, 14:14

Well, I must say, I find it easier to type on my laptop than a regular keyboard.
of course, it also depends on the keyboard. for example, the board I'm using right now ( at work) is a compaq keyoard and it feels really clumsy, It really reduces my typing rate and increases the chance of making a typo.
however, when using my very own laptopkeyb, I can type pretty fast, even faster than I can using my Logitech wireless keyboard.

Well, If you really dislike the Eluminx's layout that much, feel free to send it over, I'll put it to good use

*edit* I should mention that I have fairly small hands, so the smaller size of laptopkeyboards is acutally easier for me to type simply because the keys are a bit closer together. when It comes to gaming though, nothing beats a good old-fashioned normal-sized keyboard. (but I can manage gaming on a laptopkeyboard

)

I know you've done this review a while ago, but I've started to look after this keyboard for almost half a year or more.... Do you know where I can buy it at a rather cheapy price? I've contacted the 'to be'-reseller in Belgium, but he has lost contact with Auravision since several months....

try to contact Eluminx directly, they know which resellers in .BE have this keyboard!

I've done this and I've contacted the guy, but he hasn't got any lifesigns from them since several months.......

Not very professional, Auravision

well this one could be an alternative for the eluminx keyboard: the "Sharkoon luminous keyboard" ... if i had the choice between the two of those, i'd definately go for the Sharkoon specimen

- Sharkoon already has a bit of a reputation when it comes to pc gear, but did you ever hear of eluminx/auravision before?
- the eluminx thingie is just utter crap imo

- a rather affordable pricetag of €39 at www.cosh.ag

+ it can be acquired quite easily now, just head over here!

I just got this keyboard today, hooked it up and i hear a low "hum" to the light. Is this normal or did i get a bad keyboard. I know for the DIY glow keyboards, there was talk of a hum, depending on which route you took.
