Its not backlight, but it is cheaper, and used by a majority of the Star-Craft II pro scene.

This one has MX-Cherry black switches, so they dont click on the way down like the MX-Cherry blues would (on the razer blackwidow). The 6GV2 has a steel frame, and is completely anti-ghosted.

If you want to spend a little more to get a USB hub on the actual keyboard, go for the Steelseries 7G

Very simple keyboard but as far as hardware goes, it is the best out there.

This one looks pretty sweet. You can plug in any 2 devices with the built in USB ports. Very nice style with blue LED backlighting. Great price too.

The Razer Black Widow is one of the best keyboards I've ever used; the ultimate version is backlit.
