The Pace keyboard splits the alpha keys into separated sections with a numeric keypad attached to the right alpha section. The two sections rest on large ball joints, enabling the sections to be rotated outward or tilted. There is also a patented palm rest to increase support. If the user has a high desk surface, a keyboard tray may be recommended. However, the inherent design of the keyboard base may eliminate the need for a tray on a lower desk surface.
Most users opt for a separate number pad.
This reduces the reach to the right while still offering a traditional number pad. You can see that the Compact 101 is smaller in comparison to a traditional keyboard. The molded shape turns the hands slightly inward and brings the elbows outward, affording the user a position closer to neutral. A built-in touchpad eliminates long reaches to the mouse. The cursor is controlled by dragging a finger across the touchpad.
