Have a look at the [1] Dilemma with build in thumb touchpad or the [2] Charybdis with build in thumb trackball.

I have been using Corne since last year and want to switch to Dilemma - it really seems like a great option. I wonder if anyone has found any drawbacks against it?

If not I am going to buy the Dilemma this week.


I'm torn on the Dilemma being my next because I currently still use my pinkys for double quote and quote. The 40 key layout here was what I was considering designing for myself but I'm not a fan of the inner-index offset. The Dilemma is a sweet design so I might just tweak it instead of starting from scratch, but starting from scratch would be more fun.


Thanks for this pointer. Just three key rows is a bit extreme for me :)


I built a Charybdis Nano, it's amazing. Never going back.
