Have you used this one though? I was keen to get it for my laptop but passed on it for some issues bought up by reviewers, from memory:
1) A lot of travel in the space bar equivalent, meaning you have to push it a fair way before it registers.
2) Unstable, rocks a fair bit.
3) Dodgy drivers, problems with setting keys.
Apparently the older version didn't suffer these problems. At the price they want for this thing, these issues pretty much sink it.
As it stands I bought an Apple USB keyboard (the aluminium one - because I like the keys) instead and have been very happy with it. Roughly the same price.
If any of you guys do have this device, let me know what you think of it.

I'll keep it short.....
Got it >> unpacked it >> loaded the drivers >> connected the device >> went to import my old n52 Profiles >> import not allowed >> unistalled the drivers >> disconnected the device >> put it back in the box >> reconnected my old n52 >> ownage!!!
That's life.

Good thanks Gammo - good to see the Kaos site still going strong despite everything else UT related falling to bits :P
Well... Interesting... works OK for some but not others...
I quite like the keyboard I have now so I think I'll still pass on this for the time being. Good to hear people's opinions / trials / tribulations with it though

Yeah man, wer here for life....
THe n52Te, looks killer, feels awesome overall hardware wise, it's pretty good.
But if i can't import the profiles that i've spent years perfecting, then it's a useless piece of crap.
