TypeMatrix 2030 Promo video - Amazing computer keyboard!

This is the promo video for the TypeMatrix 2030 computer keyboard. It has many brilliant changes, such as moving the Enter and Backspace keys to the center, so you can use your pointer fingers instead of killing your pinkies all the time. Visit http://typematrix.com for more info.

To some of the commenters: "2030" is the model number of the keyboard, not the year!

Eh. You can't exactly just go and change the layout of a keyboard people have been using for all of their life, its just an inconvinence to learn all over again.

@Magnemitey If you mean Dvorak, yes, it takes time, but I switched years ago and have been happier ever since. If you mean the straight columns, that hardly takes any time to get used to, and it's so much better.

In either case, new generations of kids are learning to type every day! They should start with something better.

@thetilo check out the truly ergonomic keyboard, very similar but v-shaped

@cainisme how tha hel did you turn the leters up side down

[chisaoboy]

@delkhairio LOL... maybe you could... but this kb rocks.

[chisaoboy]

Let me tell you... I switched to this keyboard many years ago and I would never go back. I love this thing!!!!!!!!! t takes just a little getting used to, but once you do, you'll hate regular keyboards. I also tried learning Dvorak... man, that was really hard... I quit, unfortunately. But for this KB... LOVE IT!!!!!!

Ridiculous, honestly.

Moi je l’ai acheté et j’en suis content. Je l’ai choisi complètement vierge et je le fais marcher en bépo.

why don't they use better keys for that keyboard??

[thetilo]

some good points and good ideas -- but can a square grid be the answer if the lower arms are in an "upside-down V" shape when you reach in front of you? The individual keys should have a similar "upside-down V" offset so the fingers can follow the columns better..

I'd prefer to have two Keyboard halves like the Kinesis Freestyle!

@1felagund: According to a study women need about 2-3 weeks and men one to two weeks longer to get accustomed to this keyboard. You can download the PDF with details on the study from their website.
