Backlit Keyboard Alternative

[hammers18]

I am looking at the Visiontek Candyboard. Does anyone have experience with it working or not?

Looks like it'll work just fine:

Well, my wife will not be happy unless she has a backlit keyboard. This is the best that I could find, unless there is a better alternative.

This is probably the best back-lit keyboard available.

I will hopefully be getting one for xmas!

$200 for that is ridiculous.

Get the Rii Mini, I got mine for ~$50 USD. It is identical to the VisonTek however has an updated USB Mini stick plastic in the holder port. The original USB Receiver is super tiny.

Heh, I came to this thread thinking it would be about ways to mod the remote -like, a tiny led inside to make the key visible in the dark.

Could you provide link? I hate to be so lame, but I can't find it.
