Keyboards that look quite similar to the TrulyErgonomic...

Membrane. I remember a thumb shaped dip over one of the keys...

Those were truly horrible keyboards. Had to almost stand on the membranes to make them register after a while too.

It's an Access akc090 turned 180 degrees and a custom layout. I keep meaning to resurrect it and place some keys in the middle.

May i ask you what is the " yes " button?

webwit · 21 Jan 2012, 14:57

I don't know, I guess it was just equipped with some random keycaps. Pictures by Imsto, I think.

Most of those keys came from this keyboard, the keycaps itself were made by Devlin

I think there are a lot of these on taobao

Loving the aikb - is it on sale?

webwit · 21 Jan 2012, 20:12

Not sure, I've only watched pictures on likeyboard.com. I think the AIKB are very flexible DIY PCBs also for normal keyboards, so if you see people posting them, it means they are already sold. Maybe some KBC guy can tell us more. Note you can search on likeyboard for it, but topics won't show pictures unless you are logged in as a member.

Essentially it seems like a more flexible trulyergonomics keyboard. If you ask 10 people about such a keyboard, they all want their own thing regarding the layout and details, so this seems perfect for that.

Wow, that is flexible! Nice to see keys from a maltron put to good use, too.

Jim66 · 21 Jan 2012, 23:05

That's nice!

Cheap one here:

Display doesn't work.
I passed because I don't like chording, and it's a very specific tool (for live subtitles and such).

I think the palm key ideas is interesting, I've been thinking about it for some time. Permaps I'll add a couple palm keys to one of my Kinesis Advantage, I sort of did it half way:

You'd best do it soon. You won't have the room otherwise...
