We're big fans of the Das Keyboard, a mechanical plank with oh-so-satisfying key action and a pair of USB ports. Adesso's latest gaming keyboard, the MKB-135B, also sports mechanical keys and two USB ports, but kicks it up a notch by tossing audio jacks into the mix.
Adesso's full size keyboard offers up the same tactile and audio response inherent with mechanical key switches and is good for up to 20 million keystrokes. In addition, the n-key rollover function permits up to 6 keys to be pressed at the same time, ensuring all your keystrokes will be registered no matter how fast you type.
On the top left is where you'll find the integrated hi-speed USB 2.0 hub, which also provides 500mA power current so you shouldn't run into trouble charging your MP3 player and other handheld devices. Next to the two USB ports are the mic and audio jacks.
The MKB-135B is available now for $100.

Its price is so high because it uses mechinal switches which arnt cheap. There also the greatest thing to type on and last for just about ever. And as for backligthing the only backlit mechanlical keyboard is made my Deck Keyboards and its about $160 and as no usb or other gimicks, although it is an amazing keyboard.
