NISSE with 17.5 mm key-spacing
June 5, 2015
We have started taking orders for Esrille New Keyboard − NISSE with 17.5 mm key-spacing (Size M), in addition to the NISSE with the standard 18.8 mm key-spacing (Size L). Esrille New Keyboard − NISSE (Size M) provides even better usability for users with smaller hands.
Backgrounds: The size of hands varies considerably from person to person. Keyboards makers have been expected to release keyboards in multiple sizes for a long time without based on the "one-size-fits-all" mentality. Esrille New Keyboard − NISSE has been designed to provide better usability for touch-typists. The aluminum enclosure is designed to let you rest your forearms on the work surface while typing following the ergonomic recommendations.
