This keyboard features easy to target 1" x 1" keys, and has a simpler layout with less keys for individuals who may find a normal layout confusing. All BigKeys keyboards are hard-wired to be switchable between ABC and QWERTY layouts, and you can rearrange the keycaps to match custom layouts you may have created in your operating system or software. Available accessories include protective skinguards (to prevent against damage from spills, etc.) and rigid plastic keyguards are available for individuals needing further targeting assistance. All keyboards have a grey housing, but color options on the keys are as follows: Black Legends on White Keys, White Legends on Black Keys, or White Legends on Colored Keys.

The Silicone Industrial Waterproof Compact Keyboard from Solidtek features a "slightly compact" layout with 17 mm key pitch spacing and large oversized legends. The result is an overall keyboard width of just 10.75". The Function Keys are just a 10 mm keycap but do offer access to media controls, email, and calculator as well as other commands. The "soft touch" rubberized surface is easy on the fingers and also keeps the keyboard firmly positioned. Numeric entry is accommodated by the embedded numeric keypad.

This keyboard from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments that would quickly render traditional keyboards inoperable or greatly shorten their life expectancy. It is fully enclosed in silicone and meets IP68 standards for protection from dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. Key activation provides distinct tactile feedback that may be necessary where gloves might hide more subtle response.

The small footprint means that this keyboard can be deployed where space would not accommodate a full-size keyboard, while still providing full functionality. The slightly compact key pitch will still work for most individuals but the closer spacing needs to be considered when determining the suitability. Keying accuracy can be ensured if a two-fingered typing style that eliminates the chance of overshooting the targeted keys is adopted. For these reasons this keyboard is more suitable for short bursts of data or numeric entry than for periods of extended typing, exactly the type of use that is required in keyboard unfriendly environments.

The Flat Datalux SpaceSaver provides a compact keyboard input solution. The entire keyboard is low profile, making it ideal for portability and storage. The keys are half the normal depth (i.e. same width (side to side) but shorter depth (top to bottom) - making it easier to reach upper rows for individuals with limited range of movement. In addition, the keys are negatively inclined in the keyboard, to prevent wrist extension. Available in White (Beige) or Charcoal.

Warranty: 1 year manufacturer direct.

The Ergonomic Touchpad Keyboard from Adesso features a fixed split design and a built in touchpad. It employs moderate resistance tactile membrane keyswitches to provide feedback while typing with the integrated GlidePoint touchpad eliminating the need for extended reach to the mouse on the right. All of the alpha-numeric keys are standard size, unlike many similar keyboards that have wider keys to create a more symmetrical appearance. This means that a consistent target is present for the fingers on all keys. The Function row of keys are half-height, to help reduce the depth of the keyboard footprint and across the top of the keyboard are 20 hot-key buttons providing one-touch access to Internet Browser and Media Controls, Sleep/Wake/Power, and Calculator/My Computer/Media Player/Email. The keycap legends are twice the size of standard legending, making this suitable where higher visibility is required.

While the keyboard does offer a split layout, the separation in the middle is quite limited when compared to other split keyboards, even earlier models from Adesso. The minimal separation limits the benefit that the split could otherwise provide. The splay is also less than most other fixed-splay keyboards, only around 24°. The minimal separation and the reduced splay will result in some degree of wrist deviation for all except those of very slender build. The Navigation Keys, and especially the Numeric Keypad are angled the opposite of the Alpha/Numeric Keys, with the result being that orienting the hand to these, especially the numeric keypad, will require either a noticeable degree of outward rotation of the shoulder, abduction at the elbow, or ulnar deviation at the wrist.

The Ergonomic Touchpad Keyboard includes an integrated sloping palm support. However these are solely composed of hard plastic that is fairly slippery, causing the heels of the hands to slip back off the keyboard - those with longer hands will find this more noticeable. As well, the depth of the supports is noticeably shallower than earlier Adesso designs, especially for the right hand, further increasing the potential of slippage occurring.
Both left and right Space Bar keys lack stabilization which leads to a variance in activation feel over the width of the spacebar. In addition, the Caps Lock, Shift, Enter and both Space Bar keys are recessed slightly lower than the other keys, permitting less travel. As a result all of these bottom-out earlier than the other keys, which can be disconcerting and break typing rhythm.

The left and right alpha-numeric key groupings also feature slightly differing angles and keycap elevation. The left has both a slightly steeper angle and greater keycap elevation from row to row than the right key group. While the variance is not pronounced there may be those who find it significant enough to affect their positional proprioception.

The Wireless Ergonomic Trackball Keyboard from Adesso features a fixed split design with integrated cursor control and clicking. It employs moderate resistance tactile membrane keyswitches to provide feedback while typing with the centrally-positioned 0.875" diameter trackball offering smooth and accurate cursor control while eliminating the need for extended reach to the mouse on the right or left. All of the alpha-numeric keys are standard size, unlike many similar keyboards that have wider keys to create a more symmetrical appearance. This means that a consistent target is present for the fingers on all keys.
