Wondering about the reason to split 3u, with the bigger 2u on the outside and the 1u on the inside. Would not 1u 2u 2u 1u be more "natural"? I typically use the inner most keys as space. How do others do this?
Any chance of arrow keys? Would love this as a productivity board for work
i'm thinking the concept is this is amazing.i never owned an ergo so i'm not familiar how it works. what keys do people generally use in the layers to access the up, down, left and right keys?
Make the wristrest smoky-black PC! If it's a KR inspo, then it's the tinted windshield.

The middle of a traditional spacebar is centred on the B key but depending on whether you use your left hand or right hand for spacebar, it would typically land between V-B or around N respectively.

You wouldn't be splitting your dominant side though and I'd rather have the extra key towards the centre which is the traditional placement for the extra split key.

Reckon the use of a wrist rest will be a must when typing on this keyboard? Asking since I'm not a fan of wrist rests.
Sorry if this has been shared elsewhere, but what's the range of the height on the front? Desktop to lip of the keyboard? Curious especially about the high point (thinking about the need for the wrist rest).
The only keyboard that i will buy this year. Out of curiosity, why is 6 on the left half of the keyboard, shouldn't it be on the right?
What is the estimated timeline for this keyboard?
As someone who uses the alice layout daily this is a grail.Going to have to practice using left shift more though because that right shift is really small.edit: I was worried about keycap compatibility but I just found out that ISO utilizes 1.25 shift.
Isn't the name "Type K" a bit close the existing "K-Type" lol

The only board I've currently got my eyes on (and actually looking to pick up if the opportunity arises).
