I recently started to use the Belkin n52te gaming keyboard. Key mapping was easy and after an hour or so of running around, I became used to using the device in raids. I used the Belkin during our downing of the Iron Council and found that it faciliated rapid spell rotations.



Does anyone have any experience with the Belkin? Any pointers for more effective usage would be welcome.

I've used the N52 since it's first iteration.

It's phenomenal

The only thing I would like to see differently is for humans to have 9 fingers on their WoW playing hands so we can access all the buttons at once.

how do you type with less keys than a normal keyboard? or do you have that hooked up in addition to your reg. keyboard?

the N52 is a USB device so it's plugged into my laptop. a Macbook Pro keyboard can get very hot after extended use and keeping your fingers on the keyboard for hours is uncomfortable.

I use the N52 to play and the keyboard to type in chat. Mouse is plugged in on the right side, N52 on the left side.

i have the original, could never feel comfortable in it. the jump button, orange button, and d pad were terrible. I also like being able to swap comps without lugging it around.

It's easy to carry, I carry my Macbook Pro 17", N52, Mouse everyday to the office. If you want the ultimate in computer bag, this is it...




It has 2 large compartments with divider, assorted side pockets, 2 side pockets that can each old a 1 liter Nalgene bottle, and also has a conceal carry pocket that can accomodate a firearm with magazines, etc.

Maxpedition is the premier company for heavy duty gear that will hold up to any condition.
