Anyone want to type faster than you would speak?

This is the Splitography for steno/chorded input.
For anyone who doesn't know, stenography allows you to press multiple keys simultaneously that correspond to syllables, words, or phrases. The keypress combos are in mnemonic patterns so that the more patterns you learn, the faster you learn more. The end result is that you can type blazingly fast with a relatively relaxed typing pace. The strange keycaps are designed to make it easier to type the combinations of keys required by stenography: one finger often has to press two rows simultaneously.
The tooling for the custom keycaps was expensive due to such low volume production, so I'm looking to see if anyone else knows about or is interested in learning stenography. Spreading out the tooling costs over multiple keyboards can make these boards very cheap very quickly relative to their original price.

I've used a ZSA Moonlander (with DROP's dwarven keycaps) for a pretty steno-friendly board, IMHO.

Awesome keyboard! I feel your pain on the key cap cost. I experimented with the idea a great deal, including full steno programming and hardware. In the end, I settled on a kickstarter product called CharaChorder Lite. It is basically a standard QWERTY keybord with chording. It handles the chording table onboard, so it solves the full portability problem by requiring no software on the computer side. Recently, a backer has exceeded 250 words per minute on video after about a month of hard work. The company motto/goal is “Typing at the speed of thought.” All that said, I want one of yours just for the gorgeous execution!! Great job!!
