[ebay.com] SafeType Vertical Ergonomic Desktop Keyboard - Model V801

[figit090]

Only seen this in one collection, I think it's rubber dome and not particularly great from what I read (sorry I forgot the user that has the huge collection ATM)

Anyway, $125  BIN / $15 S/H:

You might be thinking of webwit.  His collection is very impressive!

I've got one of these. The price isn't bad, but the vertical arrangement isn't pleasant...

You are right about it being rubber domes.

yes webwit is the one.  it is an impressive collection.  I didn't think the vertical setup would be very nice..thanks for the feedback.

the vertical arrangement isn't pleasant...

I think vertical arrangement is not good if you keep your hands in the air.
But what if you place your forearm or wrist on some support?
Isn't the vertical arrangement great then?
I wonder what changes they have made in the latest (V902?) model of SafeType keyboard other than color (being black now)...

It's the combination of vertical but still staggered (keys placed in diagonal columns).  Sordna (I think) has tried a vertical arrangement, but with a matrix layout (keys arranged in a grid north, south, east, west) and found it to be much better.

The yogitype has the staggered layout on the right, but matrix on the left.

You'd be better off asking the question about the supports in the ergonomics sub forum to be honest.
