Zowie CeleritasAbsolutely awesome keyboard, wanted to wait a while before I posted one, to get used to it and all, and after a good month or so I can say I am extremely happy with my purchase.
The build quality is very good, very rigid and feels as if it will withstand a lot of harm. The ergonomical structure is very natural, as the palm rest sits perfectly for typing and gaming. It is both comfortable and ergonomical, which means you don't have to spend money on a leather wrist rest.
The features are all awesome, and become extremely natural to you, such as the media keys, which are often left off Mechanical keyboards. The Zowie not only finds a way to implement then functionally, but it also retains the aesthetical side.
The only problem I have had so far, is that it came with a partially broken(?) spacekey, but with an email to Zowie, I was sent a free Spacebar within a couple of days (and not to mention a full return from Overclockers).
Overall, 5/5 - Maybe 4.5/5 due to spacebar issue.

Celeritas.The Celeritas is, arguably, one of the best options out there for gamers seeking a mechanical keyboard. The Cherry MX Brown switches are the perfect medium between the loud-typing and actuation of Razer's MX Blue offering, and the stiff and solid feel of the SteelSeries MX Black. The PS2 functionalities are useful and provide a slight benefit to the 'feel' of movement in games; I found 4x or 8x impractical to type on (viz. holding the backspace key to delete a typo ends up quickly deleting the entire row, haha).
My only gripe and the reason I am deducting one point from this fantastically well-built and otherwise top-quality keyboard is the etchings. For a product that is in the £100+ mark (i.e. absolute top end for keyboards), the key-etchings are unsatisfactory. After using my Zowie board for only one (!) day the clear-white lettering of my WASD keys was already dirtied. Even taking care to use clean hands and isopropyl 99% wipes hardly deals with the unavoidable darkening of keys.
