Title: Goldtouch Ergonomic keyboards for $15
Post by: rdh on Sat, 01 August 2009, 14:43:48

A handful of Goldtouch Ergonomic boards are being offered for a "buy it now" price of $14.99 Canadian (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280311961344).

The board has rubber dome switches, but lam47's review (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:4961) of a similar Goldtouch board has good things to say.

And these have the older key layout that someone said is better.
Old:

New:

Not sure if the different Enter key is part of the change or just an international difference. The black one is a UK model!

I think these are good "take into work" boards - cheap, quiet, OK feel, saves a bit of space, and some ergo-ness to boot.

EDIT> The auction you list seems to be normal US layout, hope I don't put anyone off.
