Non-QWERTY Keyboards.

I was reading about diffusion of innovation by Rogers and encountered the idea of non-QWERTY keyboards being slowly adopted despite of its relative advantage to QWERTY keyboards.

Anyone have tried or actually use this kind of keyboard? I am just curious of its claimed advantage over the conventional keyboards.

I actually haven't seen anything in personal, just pictures and review.

Thanks!

Some say that there really i not that big an advantage with the other keyboards and it is hell for those who have learnt one to try to get used to another keyboard. Try a German or French one and you will see what I mean.

i hooked up a midi piano keyboard to my computer and type using that.

just kidding.

Is there an advantage in using them? Did not know that. In the Netherlands we use QWERTY, but in Belgium and Germany they do not.
