I am planning to get a happy hacking pro 2, but I don't which layout to get. Which is better for efficiency and comfort?

thanks.

well it depends, especially for the comfort part.

if you've already got used to US layout, don't use Japanese one, and vice versa.

I'd go for the US one.

Make sure you get a lettered one so you don't look like a complete idiot asking questions about how it works.

Nice job answering the question CH123 and ItlnStln.

You forgot "ripster" in that list.

Nice job answering the question CH123 and ItlnStln. And you accuse me of trolling?

I found the Japanese model when testing at Akihabara had way too small a spacebar for comfortable use. The Filco JP model has a wider spacebar.
