SteelSeries Merc Stealth Keyboard and Windows Update

On a whim I took my Merc Stealth and plugged it in to my Ubuntu linux server... lo and behold, the gaming pad works just fine. So obviously generic keyboard drivers will leave the gaming pad functional. So how does one go about telling Windows that!?!

Ideazon Illuminates Gaming Market with New MERC Stealth Keyboard

Ideazon Inc., designer and developer of the Zboard, the world's first keyboard designed for PC gaming, today announced the availability of its new MERC Stealth gaming keyboard featuring the best illumination in gaming peripherals.

Ideazon has taken its hugely popular MERC gaming keyboard to the next level in a way that is leaving the competition in the dark. The new MERC Stealth keyboard features an astounding three-colour illumination system that delivers various levels of brightness for every character on the keyboard.




"We've researched with gamers, elite teams and game developers to bring the PC gaming community the most complete gaming keyboard on the market today," said Chris Rathgeber, President of Ideazon Inc.

Features of Ideazon's MERC Stealth include:

• Fully Illuminated with 3 color options and 3 sensitivity settings
• A 34 key dedicated gaming terrain featuring rubberized movement keys
• 144 Gamer Touch responsive keys;
• Multimedia control center featuring two USB 2.0 ports to plug in mice and other peripherals
• Gold-plated audio jacks for headsets and microphones;
• Combined navigation and number pad with 11 one-click shortcuts;
• Z Engine gaming software that allows users full programmability, with easy to use drag and drop macro-editing, or the ability to select from over 125 pre-defined key mapping layouts.

The MERC Stealth's color and intensity illumination controls will allow gamers to dial in the precise lighting level they prefer in any gaming environment. The keyboard offers three distinct illumination levels when turned on: Subtle, Ambient and Intense. The user can also select from red, blue or purple light, or they can choose no light at all.

To maximize both playing comfort and playing time, the MERC Stealth comes with 34 dedicated gaming terrain keys and nine rubberized labeled keys for main commands like jump, crouch and directional movement. All keys are labeled and clustered together for the ultimate gaming experience, with the spacing and positioning of keys designed for ultimate precision and control. The gaming terrain is tilted 11 degrees to match natural wrist position. Additionally, traditional PC gamers who enjoy gaming on standard WASD keys can still use these keys on the MERC Stealth to continue to dominate.
The MERC Stealth, retailing for US$89.99, will be available September 17th at all major electronics and gaming retail and etail outlets. For more information on the MERC Stealth please visit www.ideazon.com. To join the global Ideazon community, visit community.ideazon.com.
