Someone need to clarify what truly great means. This keyboard uses off the shelf keys with classic ( I mean non ergonomic ) template, and in this age it's configurable by unmarked DIP switches on the back. There is no provision to easily unlock all they key to wash them. Except the fact that you can press 9 keys a time ( still short of the regularly available 10 fingers ) I have some problems figuring out what's the buzz with this keyboard.

Looking at their website it appears they only do a US layout keyboard, is there any news that they will produce a UK version??

$145/$170 Seriously? I'll stick with a $10, git-er-done version or a $35 natural keyboard!

Is there a mathematician out there? You can program functions with up to 6 keys pressed simultaneously, I.e. 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, minus ctrl, alt & del. What is the total number of programmed functions available on the 87 and 104 key versions, respectively?

@MintHenryJ That's a very difficult question. It's not just figuring out all the combinations of keys (n!/(r!(n-r)!), but rather all of the combinations of keys that are pressable by an individual. Someone with smaller hands might have a completely different set of pressable keys as someone with large hands.

I recently had the displeasure of using a PC keyboard in a library and was shocked at the design. Why? Because for the past 8 years I've been using Apple laptop (and bluetooth) keyboards where the keys are only raised about 2mm. No more issues with hand or wrist pains. The keys are responsive, quiet but not too quiet and my accuracy is high. The CODE keyboard by contrasts looks like a dinosaur from a pre-ergonomic era.

Being rather a dinosaur myself from the pre-pre-ergonomic era it looks absolutely great to me but the price does put me off.

This keyboard looks OK, but not absolutely great to me. Going back to a wired keyboard would have to knock my socks off. Like others have stated, the exceptional part of this keyboard is the price, which is exceptionally high. I'll wait until tigerdirect is selling them out on the discount rack and probably still not buy one because it's not wireless.

Must for all PCs & Apple IMacs etc too Nice, Id like one for my next Apple IMac.

I do too much typing to go back to a non-ergonomic keyboard on my own desktop machine. It feels a little strange and definitely less comfortable and a little slower whenever I go to work and have to use a regular keyboard that's not split, angled and tilted. I like my Microsoft Natural Pro keyboard so much that I stocked up on some spares at $30 a pop when MS stopped producing them. The only MS product I really like, with snappy but relatively quiet key action that's much better than the dome keyboards. And the first one is still going strong after almost ten years of use.
But aside from the straight layout, an expensive keyboard like this and they don't take any precautions to make it spill resistant? I've never spilled on a keyboard, but many have, so why can't they add a simple plastic shield under the keys to divert liquid and even dust?
