Reviews of the Kinesis Contoured Advantage Keyboard
-
CNET Review
The Good: Vertical key placement reduces finger motion and results in more comfortable typing; keys at the outer edges let you hold your arms closer to shoulder width; included exercise book helps you adapt to the new layout.
The Bad: Expensive; it takes days, if not weeks, to adapt to the unusual key layout; impossible to use if you have long nails; lacks a dedicated 10-key number pad.
The Bottom Line: The Kinesis Advantage Contoured Keyboard requires a significant investment of both money and time, but those who make the investment will be rewarded with a more comfortable typing experience.
