The SafeType Vertical Keyboard is a fixed vertical split keyboard that eliminates both pronation of the forearms as well as wrist extension. The innovative design orients the hands in a neutral "handshake" position" which greatly reduces the potential for common issues associated with repetitive use of traditional "flat" keyboards. With pronation eliminated issues such as tennis elbow are largely addressed.

By orienting the primary alphanumeric keys vertically the potential for users to be affected by wrist extension are also greatly reduced. Since the hands remain vertically oriented the majority of the time there is low risk for users to rest the heel of their hand on the work surface.

Due to the unique vertical layout of the SafeType Vertical Keyboard this product is only recommended for users who are competent touch typists. Convenient mirrors provide assistance when needing to access less common upper rank numerics or the function keys (legends are printed in reverse on these keys so they present correctly in the mirrors).

The vertical design of the SafeType Keyboard means gravity will pull the hands down if they are not sufficiently supported. For that reason users should create a workspace equipped with appropriate arm rests that will support the hands in a neutral elevation. With a well-designed workstation layout users are able to relax their shoulders and arms, permitting the fingers to be activated with minimal stress. With relaxed shoulders and arms users are able to complete data entry for longer periods than would be possible using more traditional keyboard formats.

The Comfort Curve 3000 Keyboard from Microsoft is a simple yet elegant curved keyboard which helps keep your wrist in a more natural posture. All keys are the same size, and includes easy-to-access media keys for music and videos. A discrete numeric keypad is positioned on the right side for those who enter numbers often.

The Sculpt Comfort Keyboard from Microsoft is very similar to the Comfort Curve 3000 Keyboard but is wireless. The shape of the Sculpt Comfort has a higher degree of tenting, which helps keep your wrists and forearms in a more natural posture. This higher degree of tenting shortens the actual footprint of the keyboard by 3/4" compared to the Comfort Curve 3000. All keys are the same size, with easy-to-access media keys for music and videos (these keys have moved from above the numeric keypad on the Comfort Curve to the F1-F4 keys on the Sculpt Comfort). There is also a split spacebar with backspace functionality, detachable cushioned palm rests, and two legs in the front (rather than the back on most keyboards) to give a negative incline.

Le Sculpt Comfort Keyboard par Microsoft est très semblable au Comfort Curve 3000 Keyboard , saufe qu' il est sans fil. La forme du Sculpt Comfort a un degré de tente plus haute, qui en fait, aide aux poignets et aux avans bras d'être dans une position plus naturelle.

Work in style and comfort with the new black Microsoft Natural Elite Keyboard. Get easy access to your favourite music, video clips and media programs, and then pump up the volume with the press of a button.

This version of the Microsoft Natural Elite features a 'plus' layout on the arrow keys, and a 2 wide x 3 high arrangement of the Editing Keys, making the entire keyboard slightly narrower than other versions of the Natural. It has a USB connector but comes with a PS/2 adapter.

The Comfort Type Wireless Multimedia Keyboard from Kensington features specially-designed slanted keycaps arranged in an "A" pattern. This slanted "A" layout of the keys provides a psychological and visual cue to help typists reduce ulnar deviation, minimizing adaptation time. This keyboard features a traditional 103 key layout, with full multimedia controls running across the top of the keyboard. It comes with a detachable plastic palm support. It has been tested and provides full plug-and-play functionality under Windows 10.
NOTE: This is a "legacy" product and is equipped with a PS/2 connection.

The Microsoft Ergonomic Desktop is comprised of a Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard and Microsoft Ergonomic Mouse. The keyboard bears design similarities to the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000, retaining the gull-wing design that orients keys at varying angles, from a maximum 14° tent in the middle to a traditional "flat" or 0° by the time the outer alpha keys are reached. The left and right key groups are also splayed slightly outward to encourage a nominally more neutral alignment of the wrists. An unusually deep 4" palm rest is permanently affixed to the keyboard. This palm rest offers improved cushioning and presents a deeper and flatter profile than that on the Natural 4000, helping to reduce wrist extension. However, unlike the pad on the Natural 4000, the surface of the palm pad on the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard is permeable. As a result it cannot be cleaned in the same manner as the leather-like pads on the Natural 4000.'

The minimum key height on this keyboard is 0.75" off the surface on which the keyboard is placed (1.75" on the keys in the middle of the keyboard). This elevation may require individuals to either raise their seats to accommodate the height of the keyboard or to use a keyboard tray to lower the keyboard into their lap. The keyboard also includes a detachable palm lift that can be used to raise the front to create negative slope intended to encourage better wrist alignment. Use of this lifter may require further adjustments of seat or keyboard tray height because it adds almost a full inch of elevation to the middle of the keyboard and increases the risk of a "pinch point" being created on the underside of the wrists.

The included Ergonomic Mouse from Microsoft is a basic medium-sized mouse designed for right-handed use. The contoured body provides a resting flange for the thumb to discourage the pinching action that many use when moving their mouse. The mouse is equipped with a clickable textured metal scroll wheel that features crisp detents. The two primary buttons offer the standard Right and Left clicks, with two additional thumb buttons for Back and Forward. Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center software facilitates custom programming of all buttons, scroll wheel functions, and DPI settings from 400 to 3200, with a default of 1400).
Please note that the size of the Ergonomic Mouse makes it suitable only for those with small to medium-sized hands.

Please Note: Those familiar with the earlier Microsoft Natural 4000 Ergonomic Keyboard may find that the key action on the Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard is significantly different that what they have experienced in the past. While the Natural 4000 developed a reputation for its crisp and consistent key response, this successor fails in that regard. Key response is less distinct, requiring more sustained force, and varies at random across the keyboard, with even directly adjacent keys having noticeably different "feel". The bottom row of keys (CTRL-ALT-EMOJI KEY etc.) is approximately 300% higher force than the letter keys just above this row. Due to this variance across the keys serious touch typists may find themselves with dropped keystrokes or that they are required to exert greater levels of force in order to ensure consistent typing, potentially resulting in tissue fatigue and damage to the fingers and hands.
