Heh. Not one picture of his hand actually using this thing. "Oh, someone might want to see if it works?" Gotta love that pure technical mindset.
The picture would mostly be a hand obscuring anything under it. I am not sure how that would be useful?

So, futuristic from the 90s, was available already and flopped (because it is much more uncomfortable than actual keys).

#33I’ve always wanted one of these kinds of devices for gaming. Unfortunately they’re never made for left handed people. I understand how that’s the case for such niche accessories, but when I see a brand like Razer not having keypads, it just means ~15% of gamers can’t use the device.

a couple of additional pictures would be useful. right now I don't haven't got an idea how to hold it. fun fact, I went to youtube what Logitech G13 is and the first video that has anyone holding it is not even in top results.

The biggest issue with these devices is the huge learning curve upfront. You need to invest a lot of time to get to a point where the productivity / speed claims get true.
I learned Dvorak many years ago, and I would never switch back to a more traditional layout, but I’m not sure I would recommend it to anybody in general.

I used to use a Belkin N52 then an N52TE. My current gaming keyboard is a Razer Orbweaver Chroma ( https://www.razer.com/gaming-keyboards-keypads/razer-orbweav... ) which I’m pretty happy with - the mechanical switches are good, although the extra row of buttons seems a bit superfluous.
After my G13 started acting up I got myself a Razer Tartarus V2 and honestly I'm disappointed to the point I feel like I need to warn people. If you buy Razer, make sure you can return it if you're disappointed. First the Tartarus V2 has issues with several MMOs where keys will get "stuck" and based on googling this has been an issue with other Razer products for 5+ years. While some may have been fixed Tartarus V2 s…
If they go bankrupt or if I lack a net connection, the hardware stops working. Super annoying.
As for the Tartarus keys sticking - was that because it had membrane keys? Or was it software? The orbweaver has mechanical and is the main reason I bought it over the Tartarus.

The razer account thing is absolutely ridiculous, I agree. What is worse is it keeps trying to update and has broken more than once (I have a keyboard too, and both were set up with different versions of synapse and I don’t want to have to redo my config).

My workaround is to configure the whole thing as a joystick then use JoyToKey to convert it back to keyboard inputs. No stuck keys.

What do you mean? You don't hold it, it's a keyboard. You put your left wrist on the wrist rest, thumb on the joystick.

I would prefer to have camera read my lips rather than read my fingers as I type on nothing.
Spelling something like AbstractFactory >> must be fun. (But not as fun as it would be if I had more experience with Perl).
