  • It is not an upgrade from its predecessor, Nostromo N52, the new N52TE has three selectable keystates. The N52 had four.
  • You cannot transfer any of your old macros to the new unit.
  • Macro software and drivers are buggy especially when using mouse clicks, special keys and delays.
  • Macro execution rarely or doesn't work if a mouse click is mapped to a key.
  • Macro execution rarely or doesn't work if a special key is mapped to the d-pad .
  • Macro execution fails to complete correctly if the keystate toggle is set to one of the d-pad directions.
  • The d-pad does not allow for diagonal movement in games.
  • Key map toggle doesn't toggle, it switches to the next key map state, meaning you may need to click through a useless or unused key map state to get back to the original.
  • You can not run a macro and simultaneously run another macro or use other keys on the unit.

I grabed one of these around January, it works pretty well but don't buy it if you expect all the features listed on the box to work properly. The company is also less than trustworthy.
I tried to register on the forums a few times but couldn't. Look at the review on this site you will see why I couldn't. Save your money get the Logitechs G13 , they actually care about their products.

yes belkin doesn't have a bad rep but while they made the device the drivers where actually made by razer and they don't have a bad name at all, they are the ones that screwed up not belkin

The comment you are replying to ...

I think the comment you are replying to is refering to the fact that over a year ago, after the initial release of the device, Belkin basically shut down the support forum before Christmas by making it impossible to register. Unregistered users couldn't search topics or comment. Its timing made it seem like a move to limit bad press created by owners of the product.

Though the support forum is no longer up, the details are described in the linked review. They have just re-released this product so it will be intersting to see if the bugs are fixed or if they have just updated the hardware to get around the problems caused by hardware limitations. Most of the problems of the device were caused by the very limited onboard memory, this was revieled in the forum.

I have to agree with the issues here and the poster above. Look for something else if you want to use macros or the dpad reliably.
