Readers following this thread may wish to check out a recent article in the 
NY Times on ergonomic keyboards (Thurs, 9 Jul, p. D8 or 
http://www.nytimes.com/library/tech/98/07/circuits/articles/09rsii.html)
It is written by Deborah Quilter who has written several books on
Repetitve Stress Injury (RSI).  She claims that Goldtouch Technologies
will be producing a keyboard similar to the IBM Options design with some
new features as well (PC only, $99).
