ABC News: Das Keyboard, The Reason Why
According to Richard Hart, ABC journalist:
"Das Keyboard has a great feel, because it uses classic mechanical switches. No labels on the keys. Why? To force you to learn to touch type, das why."

Текст статьи:
Specialty keyboards for computers are experiencing explosive growth. Part of that is because ergonomic disorders are still the fastest- growing category of work-related illness -- particularly in the office, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
There are as many ergonomic keyboards as there are definitions for "ergonomic".
This is the granddaddy of them all, the Kinesis Advantage, which started it all with the notion that not all your fingers are the same length.
Hence, the concave wells for your fingers. A good start.
Researchers will tell you that any keyboard is a good keyboard that enables you to rotate and pronate. Not typing out here, but in here.
Rotate, pronate. The new Freestyle from Kinesis takes this 2 steps further. It rotates, pronates, elevates and tilts.
There is even one with side-view mirrors. The SafeType takes the pronation idea all the way, and because it might take some time to get used to the position of the function keys, they are labeled backward, so they appear correctly to you in the mirrors. Very popular with zydeco bands.
But there isn't an ergonomic keyboard for every application. For instance, pocket keyboards for pocket devices.
The G-Tech keyboard uses smart fabric technology from Elek-tek. And, because it uses bluetooth, it's wireless.
Das Keyboard has a great feel, because it uses classic mechanical switches. No labels on the keys. Why? To force you to learn to touch type, das why.
For sheer cool, you can't beat the Saitek Eclipse. 3 different colors, an adjustable backlight, and multimedia controls.
And, then, there's the keyboard that isn't a keyboard at all, the Virtual Keyboard from iTech. It uses a laser to project virtual keys right in front of you. It gives you audible feedback, and it works in even the brightest airport terminal. How's that for a light touch?
