Logitech G11. It has similar layout, but no LCD screen.

Saitek Eclipse 2, a nice all rounder.

I would say G15, but if you get the first series one (blue one) they are sort of cheap.

Also, the Steelseries 6G is supposed to be amazing.

Here is a pretty cheap one on E-Bay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/SteelSeries-6G-K...em?refid=store

Now I know $79.99 looks expensive, but shipping is free, and there is no tax unless you live in NY. Plus, you can get 20% cash back using Microsoft;s Cashback offer.

So, $80 - $16, is $64 right to your door.

I have a Razer Tarantula and I love it, I don't think it's that expensive either.

I love my Saitek Eclipse II, best key response I have ever felt and it is a really solid keyboard.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16823175001

The back light is a nice touch too, with 3 selectable colors... and nice media player controls. Not bad for $50.

I got my G15 on sale for $50... If you wait around, you can find a deal here and there. If you can't wait, I'd go with the Saitek Eclipse II. I don't think you can go wrong with it. I've been told my numerous people that it's solid, sterdy, everything you want in a KB. I do love my G15, it's beautiful at night. I never realized how convenient it is to have a backlit keyboard. As well as an LCD screen. It's just a nice touch.
