I was having a bit of RSI pain before I got my first mechanical keyboard about 4 years ago, and nothing since then. With that said, enough other factors changed that I can't really attribute it to mechanical keyboards. As for the keyboards themselves, I own 3 with different kinds of switches (it's kind of a sickness). One cool thing about many mechanical keyboards is that you can replace the keys, and there are a ton of different options to choose from. I would recommend Cherry MX Brown as a good starting point (since they are non-clicky, and not too stiff). With that said, they are common enough that you should be able to find some to play with before you buy.
