    My boyfriend just got this. I want to steal it. It is a keyboard made for WoW. Considering he just got it. He would know it is missing.

    The space bar says jump. xD

    It is from Zboards. They make gaming keyboards. There are so many others.

    It's pretty neat. Now I want to know what other things they have.

    i can't find any use for something like that. my keyboard works perfectly fine, and it isn't really useful for other things. it's also a bit smaller than a normal keyboard. (you can get those at game stop too. might wanna see it in person before you "need" on it)

    Actually this one isn't small at all. It is the size of a full keyboard. I also thought it was small until he folded it out.

    It also can be changed out to a normal keyboard and other gaming key boards.

    He got a normal keyboard, WoW keyboard, and gaming keyboard for 50 bucks.

    i seen it, and played with it. it seems smaller to me. thus my gamestop comment. guess i should have said that i saw it there too. moo.

    i've also just never liked the fold out keyboards too.


    i'm also just saying, that not everyone that plays wow will want this. my husband uses a wireless, as there's now space on his desk for a keyboard. so the z-board isn't practical. (ok, the dog aslo claims his lap alot too...she's needy like that) some of us just can't justify a new keyboard designed for 1 type of gaming, when we don't play just that one game, and will actually need the num pad for things too. and don't like the effort of having to convert their keyboard around. mine's worked just fine for 2 years.

    i have a keyboard, and don't need a transformer =p
    (and if it breaks on the folding joints, the keyboard is screwed. mine usually breaks from me abusing the keys...and cat hair >.>)

    what i NEED is to be able to use my sidewinder without being banned. mostly, i can hold more key bindings than i can put in on my keyboard. and would clear up my interface easy. worked nice with ff11 (husband: and it's ergonomic >.>)

    and everything that's on it can be changed via key bindings if you get new mods. there isn't enough on it really. most can be gleamed from the manual, and then you use them so much you don't need it written on the board. if you can't remember what the talent screens opens with, hover over the tab when it IS open. it tells you the shortcut. it's also not a speed need. it doesn't speed up my clicking, which is what's needed in raids. or keep away lag. and i do more than emote. i've been playing since launch, i didn't see a need for it when it first came out, and i still don't. i type faster than it takes me to hunt down a certain key.


    it doesn't tell you to shift click to auto loot, shift-p for the pet character menu, alt-v(i think, i just use titan for this stuff) will bring up your frames per second (that gets asked ALOT). and funny, there weren't buttons for any of those. instead of having those extra buttons over on the right, it could just put "talents" on the N key, and so on.

    and what if you change the key bindings? i don't know what G did before, but it opens my guild list now. i turned off my page scrolling for my action bar. (don't need it)

    if you're NEW to MMO's, it's a great idea. but if you've played one before, then it's redundant. if i recall, it got laughed at in the wow forums when they announced it.
