I guess I will be looking at a sub $150 used kinesis contoured. Basically Sordona, the setup you have would be really neat to try out. However the largest problems I see with the Kinesis is its Size and Price. Other wise it looks like a great board.
You got it right. Matrix layout, fully programmable, integrated palm rests, thumb keys, cherry MX reds, and 40A durometer soft o-rings. It doesn't get much better than this (unless we are talking heavy mods like cutting it in 2 movable pieces). Typing on this very keyboard right now:
