Ergonomic buckling spring keyboard...

[geneb]

The recent Model M keyboard thread got me to thinking - does anyone offer a buckling spring keyboard that is split like the Microsoft Natural keyboard? I know that there once was a Model M15 that was split like that, but I've been unable to find a source for them.

I'd really like to find one if I could.

I have never heard of one. I think the idea is that, if you need an ergonomic keyboard, you have no need for a buckling-spring keyboard (ie. the latter is for people who don't have RSI or carpal tunnel syndrome).

Someday I may eventually give Das Keyboard (http://www.daskeyboard.com/) a try (the model without any printing on the keycaps). At work, so I can impress the crap out of people :-)

Well it's not that I NEED one, I just WANT one. :) I've got a pair of regular Model M keyboards as well as a new one from Unicomp. I just thought it would be neat to have the buckling spring switches in a split keyboard.
