Split And Touchpad Keyboards By Dana Bradley At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Nowadays, there are ergonomic keyboards that help reduce the incidences of repetitive stress or pain experienced when doing heavy, continuous amounts of typing for long hours. The wider space between the keys help separate the typist’s hands, thus allowing for more natural positioning.

The first type is the Ergo Natural Keyboard with a built-in space saving touchpad, that replaces your mouse and allows you to perform point and click operations without removing your hands from the keyboard. It is designed ergonomically to place hands, wrists, and arms in a naturally unrestrained position for hours of comfortable typing. The split key layout with a separate spacebar for each hand helps alleviate fatigue and stress while the gently sloping built-in wrist support properly supports hands and wrists for a more relaxed posture. This keyboard is available with PS/2 connectors to the keyboard and Serial /RS232 to the mouse ports on your computer.

The Pace Adjustable Keyboard is an easily adjustable, ergonomic, user-friendly design and can quickly be positioned to suit the user’s individual preferences. It is PC-compatible, has an optional Mac adapter, and a conveniently compact layout. No special software is required for the Pace Keyboard, thereby allowing for a simple and easy installation. Simply Plug and Play and the keyboard is ready for use. In addition, the Pace Keyboard eliminates the awkward postures required of a standard keyboard. By using a split, fully adjustable keyboard, you can type with your wrists in a natural, relaxed position. The positioning of the keyboard, as well as the presence of dual space bars and integral contoured palm rest, reduces pressure in the wrist that leads to a variety of computing related injuries, such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. An additional left backspace key is most convenient for ambidextrous activities. It has a 2-year warranty.
