Anyone using a Noppoo Choc Mini for programming?
« on: Wed, 19 January 2011, 10:03:09 »
Just thought I'd ask.  Thinking about buying two mechs in the next month or so.  One will probably be a Leopold, the other I'm looking at a Noppoo.   BUT, I'm a programmer.  Wondering if other programmers have issues with the layout etc...

Just got mine in today. I haven't had any problems with it so far. I do like how it actually has arrow keys in a small form factor 'board. The ability to change capslock to control on the fly is nice, but I already did that with software before I got it. The arrows are in a slightly closer position, but that's something you could get used to.
