The Razer Tarantula™ Gaming Keyboard is the first definitive keyboard created For Gamers, By Gamers™. A cutting-edge companion to Razer's suite of gaming peripherals, it is specially engineered to empower competitive gamers with seamless control and unparalleled flexibility.
Anti-Ghosting Capability
With the anti-ghosting capability of the Razer Tarantula™, you can press up to an unprecedented 10 buttons at one go without the "ghosting" effect (For a conventional keyboard, signal failure occurs when three to four keys are pressed simultaneously). This means more commands can now be executed at any one time.
Onboard Profile Memory
With a 32KB onboard memory – Powered by Razer Synapse™ – up to five onboard profiles for different games can be stored. So no matter which LAN party you go to, all you need to do is bring your Razer Tarantula™ along, and you're ready to play.
A Keytop That is Eight Times as Responsive
The Razer Tarantula™ is the only gaming keyboard on the market with 1000Hz Ultrapolling™. This means a delay of only 1ms between the keystroke and the key's reaction, as compared to that of 125Hz / 8ms found in conventional keyboards.

As most people have already stated that the feel of the keys are just wonderful and super responsive. The pulsing logo on the keyboard is also a plus for me on cosmetics because i also have the lachesis and they match great. Also the addition key swaps are great for me since i have all my commands in CS 1.6 macro'd to them and great time save for quick buys. The only reason that i gave this keyboard a 4/5 star is razer should have made ALL of the keys backlit, and the drivers that have came with it are dated and gave me a few minor problems until i finally updated the drivers and the firmware. It just seems to me that spending 100$ for this keyboard is enough without paying an extra 20$ for the battle dock to light up the whole keyboard. Other than that i love the keyboard.

I must say, I'm rather impressed with the products from Razer Gaming. Yesterday, baby decided that my Tarantula and Copperhead needed to be covered with a full can of rootbeer. Opened the keyboard last night and wiped most of it out (mainly off the circuit board and let it sit overnite. After allowed to dry, both the keyboard and mouse are working perfectly again. By perfectly, I mean all keys and ports are functioning. They still stick a little bit, but that's because I haven't popped the keys themselves off to clean them yet.
Let's see a G15 survive that. BUY THIS. You won't regret it.
9/25/08: 2 days later, little one did it again. This time he finally hit enough at once (he poured an entire can into the main keyset) and arc'd a lot of keys into misfiring. All in all, it still held up VERY well and still recommend it to anyone.

Alright, I recently purchased this product, with 3 day select. The shipping for ground was pricy as it was, but I think it was well worth the extra 2 bucks to get it here on Halloween! So far I LOVE this keyboard. I love having all these controls at the tips of my fingers. The feel of the keys are great, although sometimes you may need to push a little harder. Took a little getting used to, since I switched from a standard Dell QWERTY keyboard, and the keys are just a bit smaller it seems. Would recommend to anyone! Its a great keyboard!
