Kudos to the maker here. This looks gorgeous, and very close to the datahand ads I remember.

The datahand was a keyboard fetish of mine, although I always wondered of actually usable it would be, especially considering the learning experience. Keep in mind this keyboard requires chording to obtain all normally usable symbols readily available on a traditional keyboard.

Making a clone of my advantage pro (my current and favorite keyboard) is somewhere in my todo list.

I'm still trying all sorts of weird keyboard/mice configurations. I have probably at least 10 really exotic keyboards in my collection.

Years ago I strapped the two sections of the split ergomagic keyboard section to the armrests of my chair, for a startrek-like experience. At least for me, it didn't turn out to be a great ergonomic experience.

At home I'm using a foot mouse.

As much as I enjoyed the idea of these kinds of keyboards, experience has taught me that I get too annoyed with learning a whole new layout, so I quickly switch back to a ‘normal’ keyboard.

I really need to get that moonlander out of it’s box again, but the hassle is just too much.
