The Razer Deathstalker hits my desk for review – and makes a friend

With my review of the Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 nearing completion (hopefully posting tomorrow at my Examiner.com column), the Razer Deathstalker is now on deck.

But it occurred to me that one of the cool, key features of the Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 is that it can be physically transformed and/or used in a modular fashion.

So I took the best bits of it—the touchscreen, Action Bar, and the right-hand portion of the keyboard, and essentially created a S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 speed pad.

I have no idea if I’ll actually use it yet, but I couldn’t resist taking a picture of it next to its competitor, the Razer Deathstalker. Both keyboards are high-end and very expensive ($250 for a Deathstalker, $300 for a S.T.R.I.K.E. 7). Each has also many unique features–there may be a comparison article in the near future as well.

But for now, I’m just going to enjoy my hand porn. Actually, if the S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 is ‘hand porn’, the S.T.R.I.K.E. 7+Razer Deathstalker = HARDCORE Hand Porn.

This will be a fun review…
