Hey Eric, That six-shooter idea may be easy, using the kenesis with 20" tether cable and some clever velcro. http://www.kinesis-ergo.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_C ode=KB700PB-us-20&Category_Code=FKBDPC
It reminded me of another interesting customization http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-a-vertical,-ergonomic-tie-fi ghter-ke/ which uses an affordable ball-joint removed from an outdoor lighting fixture.

[...] That being said, I'd like to see a KB that you could wear like a couple of six-shooters at your sides. I actually dreamed of this one night. If one of the split KBs had a belt you could wear them on, I think I'd buy one. Could become geek-fashion. While the veritical orientation is interesting, I think that the angle of the wrist when the KB is in use is what's important. When the wrist is bent up/back, there is stress. Same as when playing piano. You want your wrists UP ("pretend there's an orange in the palm of your hand" is what my piano teacher used to say). The way many keyboards have legs that raise the back (away from you) portion of the KB is precisely wrong. You want to LOWER the back portion, or RAISE the front (close to you) portion, like the old MS ergonomic KBs. I still use one of those, and like it a lot. I have a spare too, for when this one wears out. BL, I like the split KB, but I would also look for the ability to raise the front or lower the back. Ideally, these aspects (split angle and pitch) would be adjustable. Just my nickel's worth. -- -Eric 'shubes' --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
