Having said that, hands down, the best keyboard ever made for a typist was the NBM The Right Touch. Unfortunately, it been out of production for many years. It is a mechanical keyboard that has a shorter stroke and requires less pressure than the IBM mechanical keyboards, and with a very pleasing click that wont annoy your neighbors. You will be lucky to find one maybe on e. Bay. I have two of them. The best thing about the NMB Keyboard other than its perfect touch MANUFACTURERS, ARE YOU LISTENING I will bet my house that 9. Ive had painful carpal tunnel symptoms prior to the NMB keyboard which went away shortly after using it due to the ease in typing, and location of the backspace key. The worst thing about the NMB keyboard is that it does not have USB support. International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications IJERA is an open access online peer reviewed international journal that publishes research. C 2017121 1647. I have yet to find a USB adapter that does not fumble the key codes. There is nothing worse than the CTRL key state being stuck in the down position and then you hit the combination that causes an unfinished email to be sent, or a file to be overwritten. In my opinion, the 2nd best typist keyboard but still FAR FAR behind the NMB is the Saitek Eclipse II. Im using this keyboard daily due to the USB issue of the NMB, but still completely missing the beautiful feel of my NMB keyboard. So, there is a HUGE gap between the best feeling keyboard and the 2nd best. The bottom line is that the dream keyboard does not exist not even close. For something that I use 8 to 1.

So why dont manufacturers make one Because mechanical keyboards are expensive to make. 4 Pics 1 Word Icon File Cabinet. Why have others failed to succeed in selling an expensive keyboard Because they focused on features that typists dont use instead of getting the feel of the keyboard just right. So far, nobody has been able to produce a membrane keyboard that doesnt feel like mush. An expensive keyboard should be solid and have a high end feel to it like the NMB or even better not like a flimsy, plastic toy. There should be some mag alloy in the frame and maybe a metal exterior housing with a nice chrome plated finish on the outside. So at no extra charge, here are the ingredients of the dream keyboard Light, mechanical keys with the exact tactile feel of the NMB The Right Touch It must be impossible to mis stroke by tapping the edge of the key. In other words, the resistance should be equal across the full surface of the key. Split space bar key with the option of either the left or the right being the backspace key. Backslash key just above the Enter key as in the Eclipse II. In fact, the same overall layout as the Eclipse II. Maintain the traditional, and larger, backspace key as in the Eclipse II for those who prefer a full spacebar. Removable key caps that wont break when you remove them for cleaning. Solid construction with a high end feel think Lexus. The chassis should not deflect under pressure. Long key life like the NMB. USB Support with an optional wireless version of the keyboard. The ability to configure the numeric keypad as a custom keypad ideally with OLED key caps that can be customized for each application. The driver for this should be able to detect the application that is in focus and change the custom keys automatically. There should be an SDK that allows custom functions to be called rather than just using keyboard macros. This could unlock features of an application that dont have keyboard shortcuts. As a software engineer with an extensive background in drivers and low level programming, I can assure you this is not a problem to develop. Yes, I know there is an OLED keyboard manufacturer out there with prices in the stratosphere, but Im told the tactile feel sucks. Drum roll please.

WOW, then I dont even have to take my hands off the keyboard for standard point and click stuff. If I had the cash to manufacture and market this keyboard, I would not hesitate.
