Amazing what people will charge for what seems to me a crappy Kinesis
keyboard.

Adios,

Finally a keyboard that can have an "any key"!

I'll bet this sucker is as expensive as the Kinesis ergonomic KB's if it 
ever ships.

That looks almost too wide. I use the MSFT Natural keyboards & can't 
imagine going wider even with the thumb keys. It's one of those deals that 
I would have to try it before I blew $300.

Dammit and I just bought a Gyration pro mouse and keyboard!! The range is
great, but the keyboard is nothing compared to my old Honeywell that it
replaced. RIP Honeywell ... the best keyboard I had for 13 years before the
spacebar was pissing me off.

Adios,

Only if the darned thing is cheap & they make it for Winders instead of 
the darned Mac-in-Toss. I wonder if they even have a working prototype 
yet. It's got to be very expensive to have a display that changes for 
every key


Yall are far ahead of this country boy in technology. I bought my first 
wireless mouse less than a year ago and bought one for my wife, also. I, 
being a computer technician, bought a wireless mouse and keyboard for my 
bench. It works even on old AT computers if you have a PS/2 mouse port and 
use a converter for the AT 5 pin keyboard port.


My question now is when I want a wireless keyboard on my personal computer 
and on my wife's computer, what do I do with those wireless Microsoft mice I 
have for them, give them away or try to sell them cheap? I want the wireless 
keyboard/mouse set so I will not have to deal with 2 receiving units (1 for 
keyboard and 1 for mouse) on each computer.


Although I run a fast computer I am not fast in changing peripherals. I 
still have an old pre Windows XP HP scanner (with issues with the XP drivers 
HP released for it) a HP LaserJet 1100 parallel port printer and an ancient 
Palm Pilot that uses a com port and I plan to get several more years out of 
them.


Yall left me in the dust talking about these new fangled keyboards and mice.

It's got to be very expensive to have a display that changes for every key 
& then for every key layout. I doubt that it'll be able to do 24 bit color. 
  What happens when one key goes black? Do we send in the mini repair 
man to change the light bulb. Ha! Ha!

Yeech. Figures that they'd target that POS towards the Mac crowd.

I don't know a single person who uses a Mac who hasn't put a 2 button 
scroll mouse on their computer.
