I just got my Kinesis Advanced and I'd like to try a new layout. Thinking of Colemak, but I'm also interested in an adaptation of the Maltron layout, so I would like to hear any experiences peeps would like to share.
But my real question is whether anyone has tried thumb clusters like these:
+---+---+ +---+---+ C = Ctrl, A = Alt
| C | A | | A | C | W = Windows/Command
+---+---+---+ +---+---+---+ B = Backspace
| B | D | W | | W | E | S | D = Delete
| | +---+ +---+ | | E = Enter
| | | L | | R | | | S = Space
+---+---+---+ +---+---+---+ L/R = Left/Right Shift
The idea is to be symmetric with respect to meta-keys for editors, and to bring the shifts to the thumbs instead of the pinkies. Any thoughts?
