Backlit Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Reccomendations

I was wondering if anyone could reccomend a backlit gaming keyboard as well a gaming-oriented mouse. Thanks in advance!

You have a fair few choices open to you, I am currently using the Saitek Eclipse 3 which isn't a bad gaming keyboard and has 5 different coloured backlights. I have a Logitech G15 on my other PC which I really like only the lettering on the keys tends to get scratched off very easily (a fault with nearly all logitech keyboards I find).

Razer Mirror Lycosa Keyboard

If I could justify the cost I would leap at the G19 ;) I mean a full colour screen what's not to love about that except the damn price which is over £100.

As for mice I am using a Logitech Lazer G7 which they don't make anymore I believe. However you could look at the Logitech G9 :-

However don't expect any of these mice to be cheap, but with a little luck they will last you years.

Why do people buy backlit keyboards? Is there some advantage? I've been using my ZBoard for about 4 years now and think it's great, especially for gaming (It's what it's made for).

G15 + G9 = AWESOME COMBO

Razor acoysta + death adder if your wanting to save a little money

For mouse, I'd say G500.thusaha

I have the G5 and it's the best mouse I've ever owned, by far. From everything I've heard the G500 is even better.

I've been using a Merc Stealth, and I really like it. I think I got it for around $80 - $100.

Razer Lycosa keyboard and Razer Deathadder mouse are my #1 choices.
