Wow, I had never heard of that keyboard. It looks like it would be an absolute nightmare to set up and learn to use.

- cyphar 7y agoTo be fair, most ergonomic keyboards have strange layouts. Such is the price for avoiding RSI.
- Moru 7y agoThe microsoft natural 4000 keyboard is pretty standard except split in the middle. It's good enough for me, no need to relearn but much better to use. I still get wrist problems but it takes longer.
- samatman 7y agoYour mileage may vary! I found it easy and rewarding, other people find the ortholinear layout confusing and struggle to type on it, as some sibling comments show. The one hitch I hit early on, is that it turns out I type 'y' with the left finger on laptops, and on a stock ErgoDox, that involves hitting a layer button, which of course throws off one's rhythm. I had to turn that key into a dead key until I got used to typing y with my right finger (I still hit it with the left on a laptop).
- rdrey 7y agoHah, the key I struggled with the most was 'b'. My brain was convinced that was a right index-finger key the first couple of weeks using an Ergodox EZ.
