Microsoft partnered with Razer to bring us the Habu Mouse last year. And now, they again paired up to work on a gaming keyboard, the Reclusa, which pretty much resembles Razer's own Tarantula but is priced way lower than the former ($70 against $130). The Reclusa is expected to arrive in Q2 2007.
Much like the Tarantula, the keyboard features ambient blue LED backlighting, "Hyperesponse Gaming Key Action" for "minimal latency", 12 programmable buttons, and two gold-plated USB ports.
There are two 360 degree jog-dials and four bumper buttons for faster control and optimized gameplay and six hot keys which are programmable. A proprietary technology, On-The-Fly Gaming Detection, allows gamers to automatically switch to the appropriate profile when a particular game is launched.
“We are excited to partner with Razer to develop Reclusa and deliver on the keyboard needs of an estimated 200 million PC gamers worldwide,” said Bill Jukes, product marketing manager for Microsoft Hardware at Microsoft. “The new keyboard builds upon our joint commitment to provide the most advanced features and comfortable implementation to the gaming community.”
