The nominees in the category Best ergonomic input device 2013 are:

Cherry G80-5000 • The Cherry G80-5000 was the first and only ergonomic mechanical keyboard produced and designed by Cherry. Available in the 90ties, it is now a rare and expensive collector's item.

DataHand • Winner of the 2011 award, the DataHand sports perhaps the most radical ergonomic design, and people pay large amounts of money for one at auction sites and marketplaces.

ErgoDox • Winner of the 2012 award, the ErgoDox is a DIY keyboard project initiated by Dox. The keyboard is split into two halves, each having a columnar layout. It's an amazing project.

Kinesis Advantage • The Advantage is the latest incarnation of Kinesis' Contoured keyboard, first introduced in 1992. It has Cherry MX switches and a cupped, ergonomic design.

Tipro keyboard systems • The Tipro keyboard range provides a wide variety of Cherry MX based, typically non-staggered modules, for extra keys or alternative layouts.

The ergodox deserves this one. The others are good, no question, but the ergodox suggests that ergonomic keyboards don't have to be something that was designed in the early 1990's.
