The S-Board 840 Design USB from Bakker Elkhuizen is a compact keyboard that reduces the distance a user has to reach for operating the mouse and allows a more comfortable body posture. The S-board is ideal for laptop users, as its small size and lightness make the keyboard suitable for mobile computing. It comes with 12 multimedia keys (Open, Save, Print, Cut, Copy, Paste, Play/Pause, Stop, Mute, Home, My Favourite, and Email) and 2 USB ports (USB hub model only), and can be extended with a separately purchased numeric keypad (USB hub model only).
The S-Board 840 Design USB can be paired with Bakker's optional 26-key numeric keypad, the S-Board 840 Design Numeric, using one of its two USB ports (USB hub model BNES840DUS only). This keypad can even be used (in calculator mode) as a handy calculator with its own LCD screen display. |
Reduces Risk of Shoulder, Elbow and Wrist Strain - Regular size keyboards with integrated numeric keypads on the right make reaching for the mouse on the right-hand side an ergonomic risk factor. The further the reach for the mouse (from the dominant hand home row, over the navigation keys, over the numeric keypad), the greater the risk of injuries to the arm and shoulder due to overreaching. The S-Board 840 eliminates this potential risk factor by eliminating the built-in numeric keypad and replacing it with an "embedded" numeric keypad.
Reduces the Potential for Wrist Extension - The ultra-thin housing of the S-Board 840 allows the majority of users to type without creating the unhealthy, upward bend at the wrist known as wrist extension. Learn More About Wrist Extension
Note: Regardless of the devices in use, wrist extension cannot be prevented if the work surface is either too high, or too low. Learn More About Incorrect Work Surface Height
