Anybody using a Luxeed keyboard? It has no number pad, so it would fit better in between two joysticks, or a joystick and throttle. Unforturnately, it has slim keys and the function keys don't light up. But it still looks like it might be good for sims, so long as you don't mind reassigning keys.

The luxeed isn't a bad price compared to the other keyboard related stuff. It would be a must have if it could be programmed to respond to in game events.

I have a PlasmaMM2 USB panel from betainnovations, but I don't know, how can use under the win7, that I use more than 32 buttons every game and I make the profile in the F4IM program or any software. And how can setup the axis sensitiveness, deadzone , linearity etc ...

it might be a good idea to replace the thrustmaster afterburner with the thrustmaster t-flight hotas.x or atleast add it to the list since it is the current version of that stick and the top gun afterburner and afterburner II links are dead
link for hotas.X http://www.thrustmaster.com/product.aspx?ProductID=149&PlatformID=5
