Hi Chris;
I find the BT to be the best for the same reasons. Most of my pain is
in my upper arms and a little in my fingers. I can not imagine using a
small keyboard like the QT. There is more stretching on a regular
typewriter than a BT. On a BT fingers are press inconjunction where the
QT makes you reach a lot more. I also find the QT to be a possibility
for more errors, just like on a typewriter. There are a lot more keys
to deal with and a lot more possibility to press the wrong key,
especially when someone has bodily pain.
I love my BT M-power and would not give it up for anything else.
Chris, good luck in learning the M-power.

Because of my serious disabilities, they felt that the BT model would be
easier for me to operate as I'd get less tiredness in the arms, and so
forth. Plus, I played around with a classic QT, but I found the keys too
small for me. Hope that answers your curiosity.

The fact you are going to get an M-Power is GREAT NEWS!
However, I'm curious, because I have trouble with my hands and using
the
Perkins-stye keyboard is difficult.. I'm wondering why a BT, and not
a
QT? (I know the QT is easier for me, because I only have to deal
with
one key at a time!)
