Hi all,
We have just published a review of *Hiper's Alloy keyboards*. If you
could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated.

*/However, the smaller size, tough build quality, durable finish and
simple styling of the Solid Alloy means that this keyboard is very well
suited for use atop a media centre or home cinema system (although it is
wired, which might put some off), and this is helped by the excellent
array of media keys located along the top of the keyboard.
While these have come at the cost of shortcut keys (the Solid Alloy has
just two for both email and Internet browser), we find that media keys
are of much more use than shortcuts, especially if you・re in game or
mid-movie and don・t want to alt-tab or interrupt playback. The funky
purple, vaguely UV LEDs for num/scroll/caps lock also make a welcome return.
Although it・s a little more expensive than the larger SuperSlim Alloy
keyboard we・ve also looked at today, we think the superior build quality
of the Solid Alloy makes it the better choice of the two. It・s a very
attractive, wonderfully finished little bit of kit that・s great for
smaller workstations or a media PC, and while there・s still room for
improvement is still a fine compact keyboard./
