The Ultimate Hacking Keyboard

Split ergonomic keyboards are said to be more comfortable, especially if you type for long periods of time, but mechanical switches are popular with heavy typist as well. There are a few keyboards out there that combine these features, but the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard takes it to the extreme!

The keyboard actually splits into two pieces, so you can choose where you place the two halves and which position is most comfortable. The idea of the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard is that you’ll never have to move your hands from the middle row of keys ever again. There is no separate number pad, but there are multiple function layers that have a numpad, cursor control and even mouse control.

They really don’t want you to take your fingers off those keys. It’s not clear how accurate mousing with your keyboard keys will be, but you can always try.

The Ultimate Hacking Keyboard works as a standard USB keyboard, and it comes in Windows, Mac and Linux versions. It uses Cherry switches and you can pick between blue, red, brown, black, clear or green. Each colour has its own properties that make it ideal for different people, the green switches are tactical and have very high actuation force, while the blue ones are clicky and have low actuation force.

So if the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard reaches its goal on Crowd Supply, will you be interested in buying one?
