Wacky Input Devices

ExtremeTech is currently running a report on bizarre keyboards and mice, including a keyboard that looks like it has walls and one that you wear.

There’s no doubt that the standard QWERTY keyboard could be improved upon for computer use, but with over 100 years of history backing it, there’s little doubt that these will be more than niche products (see the Dvorak keyboard’s own failure despite a superior format for an example). However, some of them may serve the purpose well for people prone to repetitive?stress injury (like typing “www.dailyping.com” too many times in a day).
