Back to the proposed keyboard with the STL model - why are the 3 keys at the left hand end double width? It seems like a waste of 3 keys. I'm not sure about the L-shape enter key either. The larger targets make some sense on a full size keyboard where you're using an extended little finger, but not for thumb typing, other than preserving some of the visual similarity, but that's already been given up by aligning the keys vertically. I'll understand if the answer is 'because the tooling already exists for this layout so it saves a load of cash.'
I can see the keymap being contentious too. Could we have a blank keycaps option with programmable keymap so people can print, laser etch etc. whatever layout suits them best?
I wish I had the skills, and knowledge of production engineering, to contribute to something more than ideas to this.
