I'm using a Steelseries 6Gv2 and I love it! The only drawback is its not backlit so I have to look under my 3D specs to see the keys. Not a big deal now that I am used to it but I can appreciate the importance of a backlit keyboard with these shutter glasses.

The keyboard I use is a Logitech Illuminated (see my Sig.)
All the keys are lit up by a backlight,..so I can play games in total darkness with my 3d glasses on..and still see the keyboard !

A must have imo if you own 3d. (see pic)

how very objective!!! /wallbash.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wallbash:' /> if you had read the thread as i have you might understand why he wants an illuminated one, and i have been looking at some keyboards for over a week myself as i prefer playing in a darker room and with the 3D vision glasses on i find it hard looking for some keys especailly if i have been using my XBox 360 controller during gameplay so my fingers havent been on the keyboard to instantly locate the keys i want!!

nice keyboard dude! this actually gets some good reviews everywhere i have looked, yes there are some cons, but im starting to think that "gaming" keyboards are just a tag to up the price and most have as many bad reviews as good,
and when i say this has had some good reviews i mean ive checked ebuyer and amazon for buyer reviews and also pcpro gave it 4 out of 5, think i might plump for this /thanks.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thanks:' />

has 3 levels of illumination and you can change between 3 different colors. also the WASD keys on the left are at an angle so when playing your wrist is always straight
