Razer’s BlackWidow mechanical gaming keyboard features a tactile mechanical key architecture that provides each key on the keyboard with a crisp response and tactile feedback similar to a mouse click, claims the manufacturer.

Coupled with a key actuation point halfway through the full travel distance, the optimised mechanical key structure found in each of the unit’s keys is claimed to provide for greater precision and accuracy versus other traditional mechanical keyboards.

The key actuation force has been optimised by the Razer design team. As a result, this enhanced key force allows gamers to type and click much faster than most mechanical keyboards.

The Razer BlackWidow features fully programmable keys with on-the-fly macro recording as well as five additional gaming keys, further leaving other mechanical keyboards in the dust when it comes to gaming compatibility and performance.

The unit will be available in September 2010. Also available in the same month is the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate, a step up from the original edition with the added features of individually backlit keys with 5 levels of lighting, 3.5-inch audio and microphone out jacks as well as an additional USB port.
