The Wave Keys Keyboard from Logitech features a wave-style layout that inclines slightly upward at the middle. The keys also sweep upward to the left and right to encourage a very limited reduction in ulnar deviation at the wrists. Unlike other keyboards of this style which offer a distinct separation of the keys along the center of the keyboard, there is no separation, which requires that the hands be brought to a central position that will require lateral deviation for most typists. As well, unlike other wave-style keyboards that fan the keys in a downward curve that mirrors the descending lengths of the ring and pinkie fingers, the Wave Keys sweep upwards across the entire alpha/numeric keys. This can lead to awkward stretching or repositioning of the entire hand for the ring and pinkie fingers to access the outer keys. Those with smaller hands will most likely find this reach even more significant. The rather rapid transition from the upward sweep of the alpha numeric keys to the level keys of the numeric keypad may also lead to regular ulnar deviation when transitioning back and forth from home row position to the numeric keypad or mouse.

The Wave Keys Keyboard features low-travel membrane switches which require a significant degree of force for activation. The keycaps are crowned and concave to assist in targeting but have a reduced horizontal and vertical pitch of 18.5mm (19.0mm is standard) which may leave some, especially those with larger hands and fingers, feeling crowded, especially with the upward sweep curving the keys inward towards each other. Included is an integrated 3.25" deep cushioned palm support with an cleanable surface. The righthand numeric keypad and repositioned navigation keys classify this keyboard as a compact financial keyboard despite a fairly significant 8.4" reach from home row to the right edge of the keyboard, something that should be taken into consideration when determining suitability.

The Wave Keys Keyboard is powered by two AAA batteries and is able to connect via either the included Wireless Logi Bolt receiver or via bluetooth.

The UltraBoard 960 Compact Standard keyboard from Bakker Elkhuizen reduces the reach to the mouse by compacting both keyboard and numeric functions into a width of just 14.3". The compact design significantly reduces the distance the hand moves when switching between keyboard and mouse usage, and in so doing reduces the potential for associated shoulder issues that can arise from repetitive overreaching.

The UltraBoard 960 Compact Standard keyboard includes a fully functioning, standard layout 10-key numeric keypad. This design is commonly referred to as a "compact financial" style of keyboard because of how well it serves the needs of those who rely on a numeric keypad for rapid entry of financial data. This compact layout retains all standard keyboard and numeric functions but reduces the right-hand reach by over 3" when compared to standard full-width keyboards.

The UltraBoard 960 features a low profile with a maximum height of just 0.75" to reduce the potential for wrist extension. The scissor-stabilized switches are topped with slightly concave keycaps to help guide the fingers to the optimum keying position. The light-colour keycaps are matte finish to reduce glare and are printed with high contrast darker colours to optimize viewing under all lighting conditions. Convenient dual USB ports are located on the left and right of the keyboard housing for connection of a mouse, USB stick, etc.

The Slim Illuminated Keyboard from DSI features a compact financial layout that reduces reaching for the mouse on the right side. The low-travel scissor-switch membrane keyswitches are topped with low-profile, flat, and semi-translucent white keycaps with black legends. The keyboard illumination is generated using flat panel electro-luminescent technology to generate a dispersed sapphire illumination that is very easy on the eyes. The illumination can be turned on and off as desired.
Note: The legends are not "shine through".

The Silicone Industrial Backlit Keyboard from Solidtek features a compact financial layout with 18 mm key pitch spacing and large centered backlit shine-through legends. The result is an overall keyboard width of just 15.0". The Function Keys have smaller (10 mm) keycaps to accommodate the compact layout. The "soft touch" rubberized surface is easy on the fingers and also keeps the keyboard firmly positioned. A full numeric keypad makes this keyboard ideal for stations where primarily numeric data is being entered.

This keyboard from Solidtek is designed for use in wet or dirty environments that would quickly render traditional keyboards inoperable or greatly shorten their life expectancy. It is fully enclosed in silicone and meets IP68 standards for protection from dust and moisture. Potential applications might include manufacturing equipment data input, medical or dental environments in which equipment must be sterilized, and any location where data entry is necessary but where moisture or dirt are prevalent. Key activation provides distinct tactile feedback that may be necessary where gloves might hide more subtle response. For locations with reduced lighting the backlit shine-through keycaps can increase accuracy and speed as well as reduce eye-strain. The backlighting can be set to two intensities or be turned off as desired.

The small footprint means that this keyboard can be deployed where space is limited, while still providing full functionality. The slightly compact key pitch will still work for most individuals but the slightly closer spacing needs to be considered when determining the suitability. Keying accuracy can be ensured for those with large hands if a two-fingered typing style that eliminates the chance of overshooting the targeted keys is adopted. For these reasons this keyboard is more suitable for short bursts of data or numeric entry than for periods of extended typing, exactly the type of use that is required in keyboard unfriendly environments.
