[IC] - Rogue keyboards...
00zeRO:
Hey guys. We have discovered a keyboard brand out there that we are considering carrying, but we want your input. Have you ever heard of Rogue, would you be interested in buying one, etc. Thoughts...?

So far, it looks like these only come in Black Cherry MX switches...doh! But, if you would want them in other flavors, let us know...
LechnerDE:
Honestly this looks just like another overpriced Gamer Keyboard with fancy lights to me.
Why should I pay 229$ for this board if I could get a Filco/Ducky for less money?
The only thing that is a little interesting is the alu case, but overall the board is way to big for me. I prefer TKL boards so this giant 104key board with the integrated wrist rest just takes too much space away from my desk.
But hey, that's just my personal opinion - maybe others like it :)

Never heard of it, and its another gimicky " gamer" keyboard

Interesting... This is the first gaming keyboard I have seen that was designed for Macintosh first!
Weird layout though... The bottom row modifiers are asymmetric 1.5-1-1.5 - 6.5 space bar - 1.5-1.5-1.5, where as the classic Mac layout has 1.5-1.25-1.5 modifiers on both sides. I can spot Eject and Fn keys in the same places as on the Apple Aluminium full-sized.
I found a little bit more info here: http://asia.cnet.com/rogue-mondo-board-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-for-macs-62223382.htm
Cable winding under a magnetic bottom cover is also something I have not seen before.
