Saw this keyboard a few days ago - http://www.getsmartfish.com/Engage-Keyboard-w-Anti-Fatigue-Comfort-Motion_p_8.html
 
Apparently the keyboard tilt and split (between the keyboard halves) changes as you to type to help you avoid RSI.
 
Very Interesting!

If you guys are still looking for Filco keyboards, I just bought one today off of keyboardco. They ship worldwide and are from the UK. It won't be cheap though...
 
My order:
Filco tenkeyless mx blue
Blank key caps
Red esc key
 
Total: 111.70 GBP, about 215 CDN

DAMN thats expensive for the tenkeyless filco

 

[llama_egg]

Holy, not cheap to be sure, I mean, getting my FILCO from the States wasn't a cheap process to start with, but that's getting close to the price of a Happy Hacking!

 

[crowKAKAWWW]

yea ):
 
I was actually going to get a HHKB instead, but decided on the Filco so I like think of it as though I saved $100 by choosing the Majestouch over the HHKB

I'm currently using a FILCO majestouch with... i want to say they are blue switches.. Wish I could hear the browns, but its too late for any of that!

 

[crowKAKAWWW]

You aren't sure what switches they are? I wasn't sure what you meant by that...

Anyways, for anyone interested, here's my new filco! Typing on it is like fingering an angel...
 
 

Yeah.. you can order them with browns, blacks, or blues ( i believe.)  I think I have the blues.

You can always order from elite keys and pay the extra shipping and duties.  Otherwise geekhack classifieds.

Just a MS Natural here.

LOL. Kassem probably meant that he has the Browns, but he wished he could hear what Blues sound like, since apparently they are the same feel, but with sound.
 
I bought the Razer BlackWidow. Too much trouble and money ordering higher end keyboards from out of the country. I can definitely say this is a huge improvement. It just feels so nice clicking on the keyboard, even though I'm scared I'll break something. Blue switches really don't feel like they should be used for gaming. Now I just have to learn to not press down so hard whenever I'm typing something. But it just feels so good to type. Click click click click. I now have an idea of what I've been missing for all these years.

I have the same thoughts about my BlackWidow. Sometimes (very few times though) it is a pain when trying to press a key repeatedly but well worth the money considering all other options are $$$.

 

[Somnambulist]

I didn't get why they used blues on the Razor either, blacks or browns would have been better.
