Hey, I have a suggestion: a clam-shell style keyboard that functions similarly to a typical Lenovo Yoga 2-in-1 ~ https://blog.notebooksbilliger.de/wp-con...2K9P9a.gif
The main advantage would be that non-keyboard use wouldn't be compromised. My main (and nearly sole) qualm with the design of the Gemini PDA keyboard is that vertical use is entirely inhibited due to not being able to get the keyboard out of the way. The situations where one format is superior to the other is highly various for me, so I'd appreciate somehow being able to swiftly choose how I interact with my device in this way.
No! The ortholinear style not being standard bothers me to no end as well. While the various ergonomic layouts can be costly as far as how much space they take up, how easy they are to get used to, general mechanical complication, etc., ortholinear couldn't be any simpler. Just freaking align the rows. Save some space and get some free ergonomics.
