Everyone seems to have an opinion on ergonomic keyboards, and they all seem to hate everything that isn’t the one they are using.
If I had the spare cash for this I’d be interested just because it’s a contoured split keyboard with hot-swappable sockets. I’d love to see a photo showing details of inside and aluminum base on this.
I have one of these Cyboard Dactyls and love it! I’ve had it for about 6 months now. Works fantastic, the craftsmanship is fantastic, and the customer service insanely nice and easy.
I don’t have a Glove 80, but I was warned that the Bluetooth was unreliable, plus complaints that it felt cheap.
I researched a ton of other options, but the ergonomics of the dactyl, and the manuform layout, and the price, you can’t beat cyboard.
Over priced and lacking features. I've been using my Glove 80 for over a year now and love it. $100 less, and more fully flushed out features including wireless. Check out MoErgo's website for yourself!
random.faceMoErgo starts at $400 for a board you have to solder with an all-plastic case. About the only thing it has going for it that isn’t completely subjective (e.g. how you like your thumb layout, Choc vs MX switches) is that it has bluetooth connectivity. I would prefer the hot-swappable sockets and MX style switches, personally.
iHeffnerI don't know if things changed over time, but $400 does get you a board that is usable out of the box with the Glove 80. I hear you on hot swappable switches, especially if you don't know what you like yet. But, I'm mostly into great keyboards out of the box, I don't have much desire to tinker with a $400+ dollar device.
