Many years ago I had a ThinkPad and I had such a nice workflow using the track point. I had good precision without having to move my hands. Now I’ve moved to a split keyboard (kinesis freestyle edge currently) but I’m wanting to get something similar back.
What options exist for integrated pointing devices such as trackballs, track points, or touchpads? All I’ve seen is the UHKB and some 3d printed models.
I’ve had a few different boards with integrated pointing devices now. The Dilemma from Bastardkb, the charybdis nano from Bastardkb, and Frigate from keyboard dweebs. End of the day, they’re nice but can’t compare to split + apple magic trackpad for me personally. The alternatives feel like I’m giving up so much fine control and surface area for not much gain.
On that note I do have some of those boards still I can sell for pretty cheap if you’re interested.
