IMHO.. it looks pretty decent... although the tent isn't as High as I'd like it personally.

But overall it should be leaps and bounds more comfortable than flat mechanical keyboards.

We have discussed it more over in this thread over here (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=46984) since back it came on the market. There are a couple of reviews in that thread.

...

it's not remotely ergonomic enough
IMHO.. it looks pretty decent...

yea like I said, it's not ergonomic enough for me...  but it's decent for others relative to what they would be using otherwise... Flat mechanical.

I was in Staples the other day and they had it on display.  I was really surprised how good it felt for a scissor switch rubber dome.  Some the newer Logitech keyboard also feel pretty good these days, like the Solar keyboard and the one with the trackpad included on the keyboard.

Also, in the F-keys, they use calculator-like keys rather rubber domes, kinda like the Kinesis Advantage.  Awful.  Why they could not just slightly increase the size of those keys and throw a rubber dome in there is beyond me.
