I used to take an old keyboard along and discard it at the end of a trip to make room for souvenirs…
I do remove the batteries and put these with the number pad into a container to make sure the batteries are still working when I reach my destination. It does take up space but not half as much as the previous model. If I go to a conference but have not been able to complete my project on hand I can take my keyboard in a carry-on bag. Why I changed to the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop:.The number pad was included and so it did not fit in a carry-on bag. It is a Microsoft product, thus it requires a Windows operating system.Ī previous ergonomic model. It requires two AAA alkaline batteries, but as opposed to the wireless keyboards of the past you do not have to replace the batteries often (actually, I can barely remember having to replace them except when I had not removed the batteries when I packed it in a suitcase). The set requires 150 MB Hard Drive space. The keyboard is also sold as a set with a mouse that is also ergonomic and has a four-way scroll wheel (up, down, left and right). The keyboard is light, it weighs just over 400 grams plus the batteries. You can tilt the keyboard in the opposite way if that fits your needs. The backspace button can be used when navigating the Internet to move to the previous page as long as you are not in a text box. In most offices this mainly means you have no interference from one keyboard to another. This means the key stroke information cannot be shared with other devices. The keyboard and receiver are paired at the factory. The Advanced Encryption Standard technology is used to encrypt the keystrokes. The domed keyboard shape makes sure you are not doomed to muscle pain (RSI and such). I sometimes move it around to find the most comfortable place or, more often than not, to switch the required arm movement. I can now choose where to put it on my desk. I do, as I use the ALT + digits codes to type special characters, mainly in Spanish, but sometimes even when I write in Dutch or even, very rarely, in English. The keyboard is split from the number pad as many users do not use it much. It costs about 100 euro if you do not shop around for a better deal. The hand position is more natural, meaning we can work more hours without having to deal with cramps or other uncomfortable issues. It takes a day or two to get used to, but most end up buying one for home use as well.
I have been using an ergonomic keyboard for more than 15 years now. Ellen Singer is kicking off the Keyboard Corner with a review of the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop keyboard.
