Other recommendations - even for non-ergonomic ones? I've seen the slashdot article on Das Keyboard and from there discovered that someone's still making IBM's old clicky keyboard design (see Unicomp Customizer, buckling spring technology, at pckeyboard.com).
I do a LOT of typing and maybe no keyboard is going to help with fatigue - but for those of you who type a lot, what do you use? (assume desktop here, not laptop).
Right now I've just got the one that came with my '04 Dell GX280 desktop. It's OK but the keys are wearing glossy and getting a bit grabby.
Also thinking of going with a logitech mouse with trackball to replace my ordinary mouse. Hoping it helps with the soreness.
Thanks all - and hope you enjoy the new avatar - slightly cuter than 90-yr old Bertrand Russell. Please meet Vespa, who is not a kitten anymore but is still cute.
