Hi again, Peter,
So, it looks like the only one that I know can work is the
http://www.comfortkeyboard.com/keyboards_ergoflex.html
on their site is says:
"Left or Right Space Bar as Backspace
For added convenience, the ErgoFlex Keyboard allows you to program
either the left or right space bar to backspace. This feature will
allow you to program either the left or right space bar to have dual
function as a space bar or a backspace. After programming the key, the
space bar will function as a space bar if you press the space bar
once. The space bar will function as a backspace if you hold the space
bar down."
It sounds like each spacebar has it's own code.
Question: Is there a way to 'fix' it so that it's just a 'normal'
touch to backspace?
That would be a question for their tech department. As the spacebar
codes are unique, it should be possible. I agree that for speed and
accuracy it would probably work better to have the key instantly be a
backspace; all you can do is try any available hot key programs to see
if they recognize the separate space bars. Seems like they would have
mentioned this as an option if their software is written for it. Ask
them.
A more difficult scenario, though unlikely, is that the keyboard
"brain" handles this function. We'll hope it's not that. ;)
Found a place to buy it for $219. and I will call them Monday.

That hurts a little less. Hope you can write it off on your taxes.
Very Happy Meg
Let us know how you like the keyboard.
