Any gamer is familiar with the name Razer as the maker of some of the best gaming peripherals for the PC around. Razer is very well known for its gaming keyboards like the Tarantula and the Lycosa. Razer's gaming keyboards tend to share some of the same features like being available in the U.S. and having the familiar blue backlighting.

Razer has departed from these two familiar ways with its latest gaming keyboard called the Razer Aurantia. While it is still named after an arachnid, the keyboard is destined to be available only in China and sports a red backlight color appropriate for Chinese consumption. Razer calls the new keyboard ultra-portable and it measures 446 x 205 x 29 mm with the removable wrist rest attached. It can record macros and store ten game profiles on-board. It also features the ability to disable the Windows key for gaming. I wouldn't be surprised to see it show up in the U.S. eventually considering the keys are in English already. The Aurantia will be available in mid-July in china bundled with a Razer Salmosa mouse for RMB 399.
