    And in Finnish it means "straigth", "line", "direct", "straigthforward", ... I think its quite a match for the design.

    A good portion Roccat devices have a name that's more or less sensible in Finnish. Maybe some of the others are Italian if they have caught your attention?

    Kone = Machine
    Isku = Strike
    Kova = Hard
    Kiro = Curse
    Syva = Deep (it's an in-ear headset)
    Kulo = a sort of fire
    Apuri = Assistant, sidekick
    Siru = Chip
    Taito = Skill
    Arvo = Value, worth
    Savu = Smoke

    That's only a portion of them. Asgardi already mentioned what the one from this article means. There are some that are a bit more twisted, but could still easily be from Finnish and as fitting as the ones listed above.

    Yep, Roccat has a weird habit of naming their products with Finnish words.

    "When I asked Roccat about this, they led me to a video clip on their site, that told me a story about team of scientists working at Lake Inari (Lapland of Finland) where they found some mysterious material called Aimo (Finnish male name, which I found funny). Apparently, each Roccat product contains some of this material and that is the secret that makes them as good as they are"
