Description

The Freestyle2 is a split-adjustable keyboard that is designed to adapt to your body. It features an extended 20″ separation between the two keying modules, allowing for a comfortable typing experience. This keyboard is compatible with Windows 7, 8, and 10, as well as Linux.

One of the standout features of the Freestyle2 is its sleek and thin design. It is much thinner than the original Freestyle, making it perfect for both office and travel use. Despite its slim profile, it still retains the ergonomic features of its predecessor.

The low profile of the Freestyle2 creates a negative slope, reducing strain on your wrists and promoting a more natural typing position. It has a narrow footprint, which allows for comfortable mousing and keying. The left and right keying modules are separate and adjustable, allowing you to find the perfect position for your shoulder width, arm, and wrist angle.

The key switches on the Freestyle2 are low force and tactile, providing a satisfying typing experience. It also has an embedded 10-key for convenience. The familiar key layout ensures minimal adaptation time when switching to this keyboard.

The Freestyle2 also comes with driverless hot keys for commonly used mouse actions, such as Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo, Page Forward, Page Back, and Web Home. This makes it even more convenient to use.

With up to nine inches of complete separation between the left and right keying modules, the Freestyle2 allows for the positioning of a 10-keypad, trackball, or touchpad in the space between each module. This customization feature ensures that you can create the perfect setup for your needs.

To keep the two keying modules securely attached, the Freestyle2 includes a Pivot Tether. This allows for an infinite amount of splay while still maintaining stability.

Overall, the Freestyle2 is a highly adjustable and ergonomic keyboard that is perfect for individuals of all body types. Its sleek design, comfortable typing experience, and customizable features make it an excellent choice for both office and travel use.
