Description: This is a lighted 104 key keyboard. Light colors are blue, red, or purple (user selectable). Keyboard has some multimedia keys on it to handle sound volume and play of multimedia.

Keyboard worked "out of the box" as soon as I plugged it in. The volume buttons control volume, the play/pause and fast forward buttons work immediately with Amarok.

No apparent issues.

I just added this keyboard to the HCL and apparently mixed a bit of review with the description.

The keyboard plugged in and immediately worked without incident - including (to my surprise) the multimedia control keys which immediately controlled the system audio volume and Amarok.

No apparent issues.
