  "has a dedicated Copilot button." -all I will say about this is I better be able to remap this to a useful macro, or my own AI tool for local LLM usage. Many a button to bring up documentation would be nice.

  Totally reminds me of the kenesis keyboard though. But hey if this keyboard is actually improving wrist strain and ulnar deviation then its a net good for developers and end users.

  Those cursor keys are evil and the design should go to hell.

  P.S. The “designer” could be the knob who insisted the actual designer make them that way.

  they should put a trackball or a trackpoint in the middle
