learning to touch type on the ergodox-ez was a barrier for me. I went from 70wpm to like 20. I'm sure it would have came back up after some time, but I just went with a Cloud9 Split Mechanical because it is _just_ like using the microsoft ergo 4000. I had no drop in typing speed adopting it; if anything, my speed immediately improved.

The EZ is the keyboard I have. I found that almost harder than getting used to the layout, was the extra pressure that's required, going from using the squishy keyboard that came free with my last desktop machine to something with mechanical switches.
