Drop's new mechanical keyboards go up to $500:
High-end mechanical keyboard and PC peripherals brand Drop (formerly Massdrop) today revealed its next lineup of prebuilt mechanical keyboards. The brand added options to three different series, with its most premium one, Paragon, priced at a whopping $500 apiece.
In addition to making its own products, Drop has a shop where keyboard fanatics can get everything from mechanical keyboard switches to unique and artisan keycaps, stabilizers, and even fancy, detachable cables. The keyboards released today are supposed to make it easier for people who don't want to build their own clacker to get an enthusiast-level option without having to deal with group buys, which take many months before you actually get a product in hand.
[...] Drop's Paragon keyboards are currently available for preorder but aren't expected to start shipping until around November 15.

spelling numbers correctly is important, even for non data entry work, even if one touch types the letters.
left or right mouse is easily solved these days, proliferation of usb ports means two mice connected for best hand choice. now if they did not both control the same cursor that would be a U i innovation worthy of attention.

I heard that got patented years ago. Possibly in the 80's. Possibly by Commodore for use on the Amiga.
