I dunno.  I doubt it.  IMNSHO all those keyboards are for mouse-using,
windows-using lusers.  For people who touch-type and are
keyboard-oriented, they don't help, because they don't reduce the
stress of using modifier keys, which are awkwardly misplaced on normal
keyboards.  And all of the keyboards I've found, barring the kinesis
contour, are normal keyboards with bumps, splits, lumps, shelves,
etc.  They don't attack the root problem that the backspace, control
and meta keys are badly misplaced.

Not that I have a strong opinion or anything!
