Logitech G11 - £42 (free UK delivery)

Quote:

* Illuminated characters are easily visible in both bright and low-light conditions
* Three levels of backlighting brightness for late-night gaming sessions
* Perform single keystrokes or complex macros with 18 fully programmable G keys
* Create and save new macros with a press of a button - while you're still playing

I nearly bought one last week, but decided I don't really need all the features. After looking at similar keyboards, this appears to be one of the best in the £40-50 price range, but it's down to personal preference and the features you require.
