Several New Document Holders from Vu-Ryte...

Due to overwhelming demand, Vu-Ryte now offers charcoal black models of the popular 14 SL and 18 SL. The new models are called the 14 KB and 18 KB, respectively. Both models offer the incredible adjustability with proven durability for which all Vu-Ryte products are known.

Vu-Ryte has also launched a new innovative product which is the only ergonomic document holder for monitor arms available on the market, the 14LDS. The base will fit on any monitor arm platform greater than 11.5" x 11.5". This product can also be used in a split surface application, as shown in the second picture at left. The product not only functions as a document holder, but also includes a convenient dry erase board and a space for notes as well.

For more information on this product, see our Document Holders category in our Online Catalog.

Inexpensive, good quality SK membrane keyboards in every imaginable configuration now available!

We are pleased to announce we now carry an inexpensive line of mini / compact / small footprint keyboards. These keyboards are as much as 50% less than the mechanical keyswitch versions!

The main benefit to a mechanical keyswitch is a longer lifespan which is a consideration for users who fit a high volume keyboard input profile. However, membrane keyboards tend to be quieter and have a tactile feel which some prefer.

Work Comfort pictured with laptopCommon features of all keyboards from this line include:

  • Embedded numeric keypad providing full 104 key keyboard functionality
  • Good quality membrane keyswitches rated at 5 million keystrokes and requiring between 50 and 70 grams of force to actuate
  • Efficient layouts which result in keyboard widths not exceeding 12"

Options for these keyboards are wide ranging (although available options vary from model to model). Interface can be PS/2 or USB. Many models are available in a Infrared Wireless version. Most models are available in two Colors - White or Black.

Cursor Control Options:

  • None
  • Touchpad (Cirque Easy Cat) with redundant left and right click buttons below the touchpad
  • Cursorpoint - an 8 way directional 'rocker' button with click buttons on the left
  • Varapoint - a mini joystick which you move through a membrane 'bubble' with click buttons on the left
  • Trackball - a small trackball with click buttons on the left

For more information on these products, see several of our Keyboards categories in our Online Catalog.

Looking for a Left Handed Keyboard? We now offer several models from DSI

Work Comfort pictured with laptopWe are pleased to announce that we now are now carrying the high quality left handed keyboards line from DSI. Now left-handed individuals can have a conventional style keyboard which is designed for them. This product offers the following features:

  • High quality Alps Electric Audible Tactile keyswitches rated at 10 million cycles
  • Available in PS/2, USB and USB for Mac models
  • USB models offer a 'mirrored layout' optimized for left handed users

For more information on this product, see our Keyboards - Dvorak / Left Handed category in our Online Catalog.

Cirque SmoothCat Keyboard and Cirque Wave II keyboard Available - but only for a Limited Time

Cirque SmoothCat Ergonomic Keyboard with TouchpadErgoCanada.com is excited to announce that we have sourced out a limited number of Cirque SmoothCat keyboards and Cirque Wave II keyboards. These are the original keyboards manufactured by Cirque and much sought after by many devoted users. Once these keyboards are sold, there will not be any further units available.

This keyboard has a Cirque Easy Cat Touchpad embedded in the sculpted wrist rest (which with driver will support vertical scrolling) which is located under the cursor control keys. The only other keyboard ever manufactured using the fixed split layout with a touchpad is the Adesso product - and that product has the touchpad located under the space bars. For those who prefer the touchpad in the original location, this is their last chance to buy this product.

Our first shipment of units has already sold out - the next (and final) shipment is scheduled to arrive August 11th. If you have been looking for the Cirque SmoothCat or Wave II keyboard this may be your last chance to purchase this product.

For more information on this product, see our Keyboards - Combo category in our Online Catalog.
