  Negging because the software connects to a remote IP and sends data to it. There is also a hidden microphone built into the keyboard.

  edit: Well crap. Accidentally gave a + vote. Revoked, but now I can't neg anymore…

    Do you need to install the software?
    You can rip the mic out.

      You can see the mic here:

      It's there to do one of the VU-meter-style flashy effects.

      After a quick Google I couldn't find anything..
      But that video posted above is very concerning.

        Well is it a joke or not? Because I was just about to buy one and cancelled. Umm…

        EDIT: Youtube video posted above suggests it does & it not being mentioned at all on the keyboard boxing & manual is actually worrying.
