#2Oh, finally a big keyboard manufacturer has the cojones to move Capslock away from prime keyboard space.
I have Advantage keyboard and usually wrote off physically separated keyboards, but thinking more about it now, I do wish my Advantage's two splits were angled a liiiittle more. So, I'll probably get this 360.
I do hope however that us_intl layout becomes more widespread and the AltGr modifier key is universally present in US keyboards without having to set it up.

#3I've felt for a long time that this would be an obvious move. I know that many people, myself included, like the Kinesis Advantage design, but wanted a split design like the Freestyle. I've even seen DIY versions.

#4I've been waiting a long time for this and getting hyped at their Twitter drip feed but damn preorders open December 20th for potential delivery in MAY.

#5I like how they added inboard macro keys. It was odd before how the Advantage had all this programming capability but you had to come up with some new keystrokes.
Is it me or the price difference between the two makes the Pro model a no-brainer? Wireless, backlighting, better keycaps, and better programming model for only $40 more?

#6So this looks like an updated kinesis advantage 2 - added bluetooth, more ergonomy options.
Kinesis advantage 2 helped me deal with carpal tunnel syndrome and forced to learn 10 finger typing, among other things.
As someone interacting with the pc for 8+ hours, this is easily the most impactful 450 Eur I've ever spent.

Yeah, I was very close to buying an Advantage 2 in the last week. Saw this, got super excited, then realized it wouldn’t be in my hands for another 5 months

#8Been using the Advantage for decades. Splitting the two sides is a terrific idea. Always wanted to mount a split keyboard to the sides of a zero-gravity chair so will try it out with this.
Two features I wished they would offer: 1. A nub-mouse like the Thinkpad 2. A touchpad in the center of the keyboard (not needed for the split)

#9I have been waiting for this keyboard for 20 years

#10Very similar vibes to the dactyl, if you're feeling handy and interested in a little DIY...
