Title: Fujitsu siemens keyboard
Post by: J888www on Sat, 09 January 2010, 19:44:16

Fujitsu Siemens keyboard (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FUJITSU-SIEMENS-ERGONOMIC-KEYBOARD_W0QQitemZ220533759811QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Computing_ComputerComponents_KeyboardsMice?hash=item3358d61f43) for sale, have to be quick as it's ending soon. It seems only fit for the rubbish heap though, so beware, it's already broken in half.

Just put on my spectacles and double check.

It's supposed to be similar in concept to the split IBM Model M15 but it looks like it has a strange key layout and I doubt that the key switches are clicky.

That's the KBPC E that I was talking about earlier. They are low-force open-contact rubber domes (my KBPC PX clocked in at about 50 grams), rather nice to type on actually. lowpoly posted pics of the internals a long time ago.

Incidentally, the layout is just about identical to the Cherry ergos, which also was a subject of discussion a while ago.
