So if there are any of those netbooks I've heard about with slightly larger keyboards, I'd certainly like to know about them.
I hear that. Keyboard ergonomics is VERY important to me. Most non full-sized keyboards I've used have been unsatisfactory for touch typing. I'm pretty fast on a decent keyboard, less so on the notebooks I've used. Much less so, even on the best of the breed, which I consider the Thinkpad T-series to be.
Unscientifically, my pinky to thumb tip (spread hand) distance is 8.5 inches. I can just about feel comfortable on a Thinkpad T but it's cramped. Tactile considerations also come into play. Mushy keys don't make it for me. I guess I'm getting old, but I never did get the hang of texting or whatever. If I were you I'd check out the one that Roy mentioned, I've never tried it, though. I'm challenged enough on my laptops to say that a netbook isn't going to do it for me as far as actually being able to type at a reasonable speed. Good luck, just my experience. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
