Good: Split spacebar. Extra thumb button: only one of them per thumb, but that's a lot better than nothing. Bad: No pointing stick, thumbable trackpad or other

Good: Split spacebar. Extra thumb button: only one of them per thumb, but that's a lot better than nothing.
Bad: No pointing stick, thumbable trackpad or other means of mouse-pointer control, so you still have to move your hand over and back between keyboard to mouse every time you need to switch between typing and pointer movement.
- detaro 11y agoThey have a trackball as an option if you want it. And a trackpoint. And a small touchpad.

- leoc 11y agoVery nice, and as they say quite exceptional. But pointing controls should really come as part of the default configuration (if not necessarily the minimal one): they're more important than the keyboard split, let alone clicky key actions.
- rpilgrimr 11y agoYou can control pointer with mouse button (left button on 3rd row) and ijkl for direction + sdf for mouse clicks. works quite well.
- detaro 11y agomatter of personal taste, i'd probably prefer having extra keys there, if anything. Why is it not being included in the default configuration somehow worse than allowing you to choose what you want?
