The 4000 Kb is just awesome.. but if you are looking at a budget touch typist kb take a look at the microsoft comfort curve 2000.. its VFM and its super comfortable.. plus it suits big hands.. i own one.. and im really happy with it.. it can be used for almost anything.. and you wont have to make a big adjustment with this kb and you will not feel that big a difference while shifting between this and any normal Kb out there. the natural takes a lot of practice.. and it'll be difficult initially for you to shift between this and the normal kb. Cheers.
