The world's best ergonomic mechanical keyboardMaltron or Kinesis may have a word with you.
But why should it be so hard to get?It's open source. You can literally make it by yourself. There are even few vendors carrying parts: Massdrop every now and then, FalbaTech, mechanicalkeyboards.com; SP have some keycaps all the time; diodes and stuff are always available from Digikey or some equivalent store.
Right now, you can only get this keyboard as a kit which you must solder together on your own, and these kits are available only once in a while.False. Counterexample: FalbaTech
It’s a tactile, mechanical keyboard.WTF
you can customize the ErgoDox's key layout in any way you can imagine. You don’t need to be a programmer to do this.Simply use the outdated GUI developed by Massdrop, your competitor.
Right now, you can choose between two main kinds of assembled mechanical keyboards: You have the compact “retro” ones like the Happy Hacking keyboard, or the large ergonomic ones like the Kinesis Advantage. The ErgoDox is a mechanical keyboard design that is both compact and ergonomic.Truly Ergonomic or creators of the microTron may have a word with you.
Just like high-end headphones have an audio jack rather than a fixed cableNot really.
The keys have more travel, and everything is more tactile.wat.
We will be including PBT DCS keycaps — nothing but the best.lol
There is definitely a thread on this already. The general conclusion is that the price is so suspiciously low that these guys are very unlikely to actually deliver.
