Why I'm building this ergonomic keyboard + Kickstarter launch:

Kickstarter link:

Great initiative, love the design I am a ZSA Voyeger user myself, you might like it, it dosent support wireless though Also, why not ortholinear? Since you are optimising for form.

Appreciate it! ZSA Voyager looks like a great keyboard but ortholinear doesn't appeal to me because the layout requires some muscle memory I don't want to ever miss keys due to layout

True, it will take a few weeks to get used to But your fingers just have to go up and down, no need of weird bends for typing letters like „c“ Anyway it’s minor, what matters most is the wrist placement

Yep agreed, it is not impossible to learn

@heydathan It would have been an instant buy for me if it was ortholinear. Doesn’t take too much time to get used to, and afterwards it just makes sense. Going back to staggered makes you think how the heck is this the standard.

@heydathan Yep, many asks for ortholinear. If there is enough demand we may explore that in the future For now, we'll focus on making the standard layout version as good as possible

immediately backed. The quality of split keyboards have never been high enough to match the rest of my setup

@max4c_ Appreciate the support 🙏 Quality is my top priority, otherwise I'd just stick with my Kinesis

love this, congrats

Thank you 🙏

n congrats 🎉 🚀

Thank you!

Backed!

Thank you for the support 🙏

good luck! i’ve placed my order ✨

Thank you for your support 🙏

Just shared it with some writer friends that are using the ugly black one haha!

this looks insane

maybe weird piece of feedback but i exclusively type B with my right hand

Not weird at all, actually someone suggested today to have two "B" keys (one on the left and one on the right) For now we're going to keep it clean and standard but I'll keep it in mind if I keep getting the ask

Glad to hear! I backed the project regardless, but would really only be able to use with a “B” on the right as well 😅. Good luck!

Appreciate the support 🙏 We’ll support ZMK, so if you wanted you could bind the right space bar to “B” if you wanted or something hacky like that

Well I probably go for sofle keyboard

i was about to buy one but i saw delivery date feb 2027, is that the earliest it'll probably come out?

Basically every Kickstarter I see delivers their product late and I wanted to see if it was possible to deliver on time so I gave a very conservative timeline Here's my thinking:

makes sense, thanks for sharing this! super keen to eventually use this, i love the apple magic keyboard + split keyboards and im happy someone’s bringing them together basically

Please consider adding a 2.4 GHz dongle for connectivity.

What is the benefit you're looking for from a 2.4 GHz dongle?

how stable, reliable n durable is the tenting kit ? if it gets discolored or torn like ipad cases in a year or so, what’s the cost of replacing it? happy to pay, just want to know the cost

The internals of the case are made of metal so durability of the structure is less of a concern The case's soft exterior will be the first part to wear The BOM for the case is a small part of the total so I expect it to not be bad for a replacement of just the case

cool, thanks for clarifying!

you need to buy new airpods sir

I have the Airpods Pro3, do they look like an older model to you?

yep, only in this pic. i didn’t notice on youtube though
