Computer peripherals designed especially for gaming-related purposes are becoming quite popular nowadays, as their special design and features allow users to take their in-game skills to the next level. And that's exactly the type of device we'll talk about as follows, namely the DKTBoard presented by the people over at Everglide, a peripheral that combines a very attractive and sleek look with some pretty good features and a
touch of Razer's skill in designing gaming devices.

Thus, according to Everglide, the DKTBoard fuses Everglide's "old skool" feel with cutting-edge technologies provided by the Powered by Razer program. Housed in a brushed-aluminum chassis, the slim and backlit keyboard utilizes a slim keycap structure that provides instant response and a satisfying tactile feedback.

Furthermore, the device features a backlight illumination system, as well as 8 one-touch multimedia hot keys, all incorporated in a compact, space-saving layout (402mm x 148mm x 24mm). The keyboard connects to the host computer via an USB 2.0 interface and works with the Windows 2000/XP/x64/Vista operating systems.

The device from Everglide was designed with the help of a famous member of the gaming comunnity, namely Brian "DKT" Flander, who had only good things to say about this peripheral (obviously!): "Gaming professionally means I travel around a lot. My gear needs to be tough and portable. The DKTBoard is a divine fusion of sleek style and unyielding durability that makes it the perfect companion in my conquests. My skills do not fail me, nor would my gear."

The Everglide DKTBoard is available solely in a bundle with the DKT Mousepad for around $69.99, which is a relatively OK price to pay for this thing, especially if you're a hardcore gamer, that is.
