GEEK BOARD

While I love new techie toys - i'm not so sure about this keyboard. 

1.  I love my Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard. Ever since I started using it, I no longer wake up with painfully numb hands.

2.  The keys are LABELED!!!  Granted I don't look at my fingers while I type - I ocassionaly do need to look when I need to do CTRL or ALT something. 

However, this new keyboard does have some quality that might be addictive:  "By far the most satisfying thing about the keyboard is the noise that it makes. Das Keyboard describes the key mechanism as "slightly clicky," which misses the point. It's loud. The keys offer real resistance, too. Again, in common with the Model M, the keyboard uses a buckling spring mechanism that incorporates individual mechanical switches rather than a single rubber membrane. The result: typing feels like crushing tiny glass crystals with miniature hammers. It's addictive—like popping bubble wrap. And it makes the sort of noise that keyboard designers have for years fought to conceal. "

I think this keyboard - despite it's cool popping bubble wrap sound - just might be too geeky for me.
