Wolf Claw II FPS Keyboard
I have super long fingers. I’m talking concert pianist long. But even so, sometimes in the middle of a raging game of Medal of Honor I seethe in frustration at my inability to easily press all the buttons I want to press to successfully liquidate my opposition. I know, I know, you’re all going to tell my to bind my keys. I, unfortunately in this case, am one of a tiny minority of gamers who loathe playing on servers where there is a high percentage of players that are cheating. I hate cheaters. HATE. Yeah it’s great that you can run up your score to impossible numbers with your wall hacks and your glowing skin mod, but how can you even pretend to be proud of that score which had nothing to do with ability and everything to do with laziness and lack of skill…
Wow, sorry, off on a tangent (a favourite one at that). Anyway, I play on servers that discourage key binding, so the next best thing that I could find was the Wolf Claw II FPS Keyboard. All of the keys important to efficient hunting are readily available at your left hand in an ergonomically designed circular keypad. The spacebar has been revamped into a vertically oriented key to make it fall directly under the natural position of the thumb (aka make for easier smackage). It’s also got a handy dandy K-Lock key, for making it easier to chat with your comrades. No more clicking on and off to talk (and getting fragged in the process), now just turn on the K-Lock key and scream orders to your hearts content.
The keyboard still features the standard set up, so that your word processing won’t come out looking like alien messages from the mothership, and also includes a couple of USB ports, an easy Plug and Play interface, and internet hotkeys.
No doubt this wee beastie will take a little getting used to, but I think given sufficient practice, a gamer’s prowess could be seriously improved.

Yeah! I remember seeing this over at Thinkgeek I believe. We’ve got a ton of weird stuff like that here at work. The boss likes to pick up those odd interface devices, we actually have some media coming in today and I get to show them off. Gah. I don’t want to talk to anyone lol.

This is great, except I use my right hand for all the keyboard stuff!
I’m left handed and have used the mouse and joystick in my left hand since I first started using computers and gaming.
Now if they could move the keypad to the other side for us poor unfortunate lefties…

Cal, my brother is also left handed and has the exact same problem. He’s learned to play as a righty in order to better own my arse, but I always keep an eye out for lefty stuff for him. You’re not alone!
And I’ll definitely post any lefty oriented gear I come across.
