help picking out a mechanical keyboard

[skuzzzzy]

im looking for a brown, clear or blue switch mechanical keyboard, mostly brown though since its quieter.

i need a arm rest and would prefer backlighting but due to there not being many backlighting keyboards it kind of kills me getting one.

so heres my choices,

1. Das Professional Model S Silent + 3M Gel Wrist Rest
however  i dont really like the gloss finish or the design.
$153

2. Xarmor U9BL
i hear this keyboard isnt the best quality, and the keys are rubber coated, and they'll mess up fast.
$130+ shipping

3. Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless + 3-star Handmade Leather Palm Rest
i really like this set however price is really high and over the decks price.
Price: $193+ shipping

4. Deck Legend Ice Tactile + 3M Gel Wrist Rest
ive been reading that these leds are ment to last 20+ years, but i keep reading where people posted saying the leds died only after a year.
Price: $187+ shipping


so if you could let me know pro's and con's on these or just what you would buy, it would be appreciated. thanks.

Just out of curiosity: why not Filco Majestouch Tenkeyless + 3M Gel Wrist Rest?

didnt know they had it in the same size as the small keyboard.

im mostly leaning towards the deck, just want to findout if the leds really go out as ive been reading.
