OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Engineered for style and comfort, this black keyboard will be great for your hands! Repetitive motion is not good for your joints-it can wear down the cartilage and arthritis can set in. This keyboard is designed to accept force on five different levels, from 35 grams to 80 grams. The keys will register with just the slightest touch, and are set in an energy-saving curve. Your fingers will not hurt so much, so quickly, as they do on a standard keyboard.

This keyboard carries 104 normal keys and a PS/2 Interface. For sheer ease of writing, you can not beat this dynamic keyboard!

KeyTronic - my all-time favorite keyboard

white Reviewed By: on 4/28/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: - Amazingly crisp tactile response, reminiscent of those old IBM or Apple "click" keyboards albeit not as obnoxious acoustically.
- SOLID construction. The last KeyTronic keyboard I owned not only survived the many numerous late nights of writing/programming/gaming/whatnot what with my often violent keypresses approaching 120wpm, it endured these with much finesse. It was 12 years ago that I first bought that keyboard and it was working perfectly up until I retired it 3 years ago.
Cons: - Minor gripe: although the letters are engraved into each key -- this is much better than stickers that some mfrs use -- they're not filled in as neatly as I'd have hoped.
- Price might seem high compared to the stuff that Microsoft, Logitech, et. al. offer. But worth every penny nonetheless.
Other Thoughts: I fooled around with two Logitech keyboards after my last KeyTronic keyboard. Until I find something better, I'm going to stick with this for a while.

Great for arthritis!

Tech Level Tech Level: low - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This keyboard is WONDERFUL for people with arthritis. We got a new computer and the keyboard was so stiff that I was missing spaces between words a lot. I'd hit the space bar but it didn't "take" because of low strength in my thumb. Also, my hands got sore if I typed for very long. With this keyboard I'm not missing spaces at all and can type quickly, accurately, and for hours at a time.
Cons: It has a PS-2 connector so you have to get an adapter to plug it into a new computer.

Keytronic has a winner!

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Unusually crisp, tactile response reminiscent of mechanical keyboards, but without the noise. The curved profile and "ergo technology" makes this keyboard a joy to type on; I'd say that it's honestly even more comfortable than the split keyboards I've used. My fingers just glide across the keys effortlessly and I can type comfortably for hours. No N-key rollover, but it seems to handle multiple keypresses surprisingly well. I've tried it in FPS games and it works flawlessly.
Cons: The packaging seems a little over-enthusiastic. You'll see what I mean when you get it. I'm tempted to agree with it, though :)
Other Thoughts: This keyboard is good for typing, good for gaming, and good for life with the lifetime warranty. You can't go wrong!

Pros: will never wear out..
Cons: big..
Other Thoughts: sure it's built like a tank.. yes the key layout is correct..
but it's "old thinking".. maybe just because it's big and bulky..
there was once a more modern version of this great keyboard
with the exact same key layout and smaller and it really did feel good- but i don't think there is anything great about the way this heavy duty version feels.. but why am i talking down
to one of the few great keyboards left? i don't know- it's up to you.. if i buy more keyboards i'll probably find none of them worth ten cents.. but i'll keep buying..

Now shipping with Ergo Technology. Most keyboards use a standard 55 grams of force required to register every key, Ergo Technology has 5 different levels of force. From 35 grams to 80 grams - that correspond to the strength of the finger that touches the keys. The result is more comfort for your hands.
