> To me, making the keyboard more useful is much more about changing the shape of the keyboard than remapping a bunch of keys. I totally agree. One big issue is that many work on laptops and cannot / won't carry an ergo keyboard around. The second best I found, besides having an ergo keyboard, is to use an actual japanese keyboard: laptops with japanese keyboard can easily be found / shipped. You can have a Mac laptop with a japanese keyboard, for example. And thanks to the narrow spacebar on japanese keyboards and the additional modifiers, you get more modifiers and they're easier to reach. So I use a japanese keyboard even though I'm not japanese.
