Which keyboard do you like best?

The standard QWERTY:

Or the split keyboard:

I can use both, and am more used to the standard QWERTY, but I absolutely love the split keyboard!

Discuss.

(I tried to get a poll started too, but it wouldn't work for me, so whatever)

I've never used this so-called split keyboard. What makes it different than QWERTY?

Also, I attached a poll for you. Not sure why you couldn't get it to work.

I prefer the spilt keyboard. Just because that since it's well...split, it's easier to have both hands on it. PLus the middle is also raised so you don't need to reach down like with a QWERTY keyboard.

I tried a split keyboard; it got all screwy and I ended up throwing it out the window. Not really, but you get the point.

The split keyboard is a QWERTY, but the keys are split down the middle and spread apart like in the picture. This gives more space for your hands; however, if you are used to the standard QWERTY, you'll be more prone to typos because of the significantly different feel of the split keyboard. In other words, you might have to take the time to get used to the split keyboard. I think it's worth it though.

I doubt I could use the Split keyboard very well, I'm way too used to a QWERTY one.

:x

You could try Pani. I find it a lot easier.

Never even seen a split keyboard, so obviously never used one. They do look pretty cool though, and I can see how it could be better with time. As it stands, QWERTY all the way.
