Glove80 is super nice, though rather expensive.

I got one with low-force switches. It's very comfortable to type on, but between the low-force switches and slightly different layout from a regular keyboard (column-staggered, concave, symbols in different locations) I make more mistakes. So I usually type on my laptop instead, especially while coding.

If you are comfortable using the laptop keyboard what was your motivation to buy the glove80? I use that as my daily driver but if I didn't get tendonitis from normal keyboards then I wouldn't have bought it.

The laptop keyborad is good enough, but I'd enjoyed using the Kineses before. I moved long distance and the Kinesis was bulky and didn't make the cut for things to haul. Once I was settled I started looking to set up a proper office again, and that included a keyboard. But I didn't find one that was enough better than a laptop keyboard to get regular use.
