The right tools for the right game! Old Republic keyboard by Razer

Back in January I showed you the Switchblade on gamingface.com. It’s a small gaming laptop from Razer with a unique feature: Dynamic Adaptive keys. This tech was some of the coolest stuff I got to see at CES this year.

The first product that I’ve seen with the Dynamic Adaptive keys is about to come out from Razer and it's set to change the way we game! I will not be thinking twice about trading in my G19 for this baby from Razer!

Let's have a look at this new Old Republic keyboard from Razer, all set up to play SWTOR!

Are you on the light side of the Force?      
                                                      



Or will you fall to the Dark Side?

Pre programmed settings not only change the macro keys on the board but also the complete look of it right down to your skill key-sets for your class!  

A new way to experience the world of Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ with game information, music, interchangeable faction emblems and much more vibrantly displayed on the full color LCD track-panel. With highly sensitive multi-touch support, you can even record macros right on the panel so you're armed for complete destruction of your opponents instantly.

Hang on A Track panel that is all so a touch pad ? OMG!


A true Jedi or Sith master thinks quickly on their feet, adjusting Force abilities and lightsaber stance to suit each fight. With the dynamically changing adaptive tactile keys on the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ keyboard by Razer, put more skills and macros within quick reach so you're always equipped to emerge victorious from every battle, all the time.

For me this will be a killer addition to this keyboard making it smooth as R2's dome, to slip right into this new MMO.




Just as smugglers fast draw their blasters to shoot enemies dead before they can react, the resplendent gold backlit slim key caps on the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ keyboard by Razer allow faster actuation and shorter travel distance. This keeps you many steps ahead in combat, the decisive edge for surviving in the far reaches of the galaxy.

I love typing on my laptop and slimline keys on a gaming keyboard is a god send!


Record unlimited macros on-the-fly without taking an eye off the game and immediately change between up to 10 profiles without the hassle of going into the driver software. 5 additional macro keys on the side further expand the number of easy-to-reach commands at your fingertips.

I don't know if I understand this just yet ... Macros on the left and right of the keyboard seems like a lot of moving around to me but it will let you use a familiar layout for all your other games, just in case you need to log into WoW to let them know about all the fun your having in SWTOR :P


Whether blue for the Galactic Republic, red for Sith Empire, or even green like a Jedi's lightsaber, customize the look of the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ keyboard by Razer with multi-color LED lighting to get a unique look and style on your ultimate gaming weapon.

Blue all the way baby! 


Now I'm thinking I might have to do a full case mod for this baby. Not only is it sleek but it matches my site!!



To give you a better idea of how it all works check out this video from Razer!
