I trust you know that Ergodox is worth far more than a standard tenkeyless?

Hi ShriekBob,

That is indeed quite tempting. :-) Why/In what sense do you find it limiting?

I do indeed know that the  Ergo is worth more than a standard tenkeyless, but I'd like it to go to a good home that will love it and take care of it, I've had a good year out of it, and tbh they seem to be dropping in price quite a lot lately.  Though I will admit that I haven't seen any with MX Green switches before.  If someone wants to make up the difference I won't complain ;)

As for the limitations I describe.  I spend my days programming, at work in C++, and at home in Ruby/Clojure/Java depending on the project.  I've found I don't like switching layers to get access to the various symbols I need, and there just isn't enough keys.  I think I'd be happier with something a bit more generic.

I don't understand. This is one of the most fantastic deals I've seen so far, and nobody wants to take it up! I would happily buy your ergodox if I had rubber thumbs (or bigger hands).

That said, I am a big fan of the Tipro 128/ Cherry PC128BM. I have a split layout on mine, and it has 128 keys (fully programmable). I have many macro keys dedicated on mine.

Methinks it beats Ergodox 10x over, and these are apparently cheap in the UK. Probably you can get for 30 pounds shipped.
