Hubby is VERY much into WoW these days. He was looking today at Best Buy at a pc gamer keyboard, comparing it to a different one he found online. I wanted to toss the two that he's looking at out here for any WoW gamers. Any advice one way or the other would be helpful! Just hoping to get other opinions before he decides which to purchase:

Option 1:

104 key keyboard with blue LED backlighting, a thin flat design, comfortable adjustable wrist rest and angle adjustment feet. Includes a nine button programmable pad (9 Blue LED backlit buttons) with two shift keys for up to 27 button commands. Saitek's smart technology software is included and adds 27 programmable macro functions.
He really likes the backlit feature on this one. He often plays WoW after I've gone to bed (pc is in our bedroom till bro-in-law eventually moves out). So he's playing in the dark, therefore the backlight could be VERY helpful to him!




Option 2:

• All default game commands, including the opening of bags, targeting friend and foe, looking at maps are clearly labeled on the keys
• Macros enabled keys perform multiple actions and reveal emotions like laughing and roaring in victory at the push of a button
• Specialty zones group commands into two zones: the Game Window Zone and Chat command Zone - yell or whisper, your Spell Book and access to Character interface commands are all within easy reach
• Custom labeled commands make it easy to interact with a detailed world. Easily select weapons, cast spells and target who will feel your wrath or goodwill.

So one is great because it is backlit and programable. The other is great because it is specially programmed for WoW.

Any WoW gamers have any opinions about either?
