not too keen on ergonomics myself - the problem is that your typing skills just dont tranfer between keyboards

There really still aren't too many ergonomic keyboards out there... The only other one that I know of i the wireless ones that Microsoft has come out with.

I don't know what's wrong with a flat keboard. Get a decent wrist pad and it's usally not too bad. I know one of my friends was mocking me because I got the "cheaper" flat Microsoft keyboard when he had the natural one...man I hate those curved ones!

You know what keyboards drive me nuts? the ones that are split apart in the middle, so you have two sides for both hands. You should look into the Logitech wireless desktop, which has a super thin keyboard and mouse. The keyboard looks nice, but i'm not so sure about the mouse.

The ones that are split are the ergonomic ones...

I love the ergonomic keyboards, i'm going to go buy on soon (myne has been used so much you can't even see what button you're pressing, the letters have worn off, LOL).
