On December 10, 2008, Logitech introduced the Logitech G13 advanced gameboard - a hybrid gaming keyboard designed to complement the Logitech keyboard and mouse - for comfort and control on a Mac computer or a PC. Unlike other gameboards that focus only on programmability, the G13 advanced gameboard incorporates the principles of Logitech's ergonomic keyboard design. The Logitech G13 advanced gameboard completes augments a Logitech G15 keyboard for gaming and a Logitech G9 Laser Mouse.
Delivering increased comfort, the iconic contoured design complements the natural shape of your hand and fingers, while the smooth, concave home-row keys make it easy to locate buttons by touch. With three game modes, 25 programmable keys and a programmable analog stick, the G13 gameboard offers up to 87 ways for you to control your game. And you can set up custom button-profiles for each one of your favorite titles. You can even create macros on the fly without having to pause your game.
The 160-by-43-pixel GamePanel LCD shows live game stats, system info and even messages from other players. Backlit keys help you easily locate the right key in low-light conditions or lights-out play. You can select from hundreds of available backlight colors.
The G13 gameboard includes onboard memory, letting you program up to five ready-to-play profiles. The G13 gameboard also offers pre-configured settings for many popular games, including World of Warcraft Burning Crusade and Call of Duty 4.
The Logitech G13 advanced gameboard costs $79.99.
