My Microsoft ergonomic keyboard has just died after ooh, maybe ten years service - seemed to be the cable as in wiggle it and you'd get the connection back but has got worse over several weeks. Opening up the keyboard killed it dead as couldn't get all the bits to line up properly afterwards.
Anyway, what I wanted to know was
1. If I went for one of the cable-less remote keyboards, how secure is it? If the signal can be read from outside the house, from how far away?
2. Any recommendations regarding the current generation of ergonomic keyboards? In the past I've seen what I call the spread out ones (like the Microsoft one that died) and clustered ones, which have all the keys in two little dimples. What I need to be able to do is to have my hands meeting at the keyboard with about a 90 deg angle where they meet, this leaves my shoulders nice and relaxed rather than tensed from rearranging my hand angle to suit the straight across keyboard.
