The most attractive thing about this keyboard is choice: currently, you can choose red, brown, or white switches, and there is a stretch goal in place for a 4th switch type that will be voted upon. (Read More)

Glove80 Ergonomic Keyboard

January 27th - via: dudeiwantthat.com
This keyboard is begging for a high-five. And not just because the Glove80 is a keyboard split in two, and contoured to look roughly like a left and right hand (OK, left and right mitt) that will end up giving you some skin every time you touch it. The Glove80 is also the result of over 500 prototypes and ergonomic A/B tests, so designers MoErgo feel their wireless keyboard will give you the best, most comfortable typing experience you've ever had. (Read More)

This $299 wireless keyboard is shaped like a pair of gloves to offer the best ergonomic layout

January 25th - via: yankodesign.com
The point is, a human-centric approach always makes a product experience better. It’s the same reason why an ergonomic chair feels much more comfortable to sit in as compared to a hard wooden chair, and why typing on touchscreens still absolutely sucks in comparison to typing on a proper keyboard. The Glove80, however, pushes the boundary by making the mechanical keyboard EVEN MORE human-centric. (Read More)
