Been holding out to try a new layout. I think it will be worthwhile to try out a new layout... the issue is time. I'm working at a 14-person marketing research startup (up from 6 in 2008 when I started) in Boston and one of biggest issues me and my fellow coders have is wrist pain. We've resorted to wrist braces for the time being. I know this isn't a good idea. Any recommendations for ideal QWERTY setups? Been doing some research on different keyboards, but would love to hear some opinions from HN.

Might I suggest exercises that require grip? I've noticed that when I do a lot of weight training, which means pull-ups, deadlifts, and handstand pushups, that my wrist pain from typing is reduced quite noticeably.

  Will give that a try, thanks.
