The Logitech® G19 keyboard has a very cool color 320×240 GamePanel LCD which supports several widgets out of the box. Widgets such as Twitter, VOIP, images, system information, game data(rockets,bullets,etc) and also Youtube and you can add more as they come out. It’s pretty nice if you like the Logitech® squishy keyboard feel. The video playback is pretty smooth which is much better than the earlier monochrome screens on the G11 and G15 series.

The keyboard feels about the same as earlier G-series keyboards made by Logitech®. You can custamize the backlight and setup macros for your tasks. The problem with the keyboard is that it requires it’s own power brick, unlike earlier models which get their power directly from the computer. The price on this puppy is around $200 which is a little steep for a keyboard.
