The Kinesis® FreestyleTM adjustable split keyboard is a breakthrough in ergonomic design. Created with input from ergonomic and health professionals, the Freestyle adapts to the specific needs of each user, while providing a stylish accent to any workstation.

Other unique features of the Solo keyboard include driverless hot keys for mouse intensive actions, an embedded 10-key, low-profile design to promote neutral wrist posture, a Pivot Tether™ connecting the two keying modules together and quiet, tactile key switches
Freestyle Solo™ Keyboard Features -
Provides total separation of both keyboard modules
Up to eight inches of complete separation of both left and right keying modules.
Perfect for individuals requiring greater separation than what is provided by other ergonomic keyboards.
Also available is a custom version that offers up 20 inches of separation.
Sleek, low profile design
Most keyboards including ergonomic models have a 10 degree positive slope from the back edge to the front edge.
These designs tend to bend your wrists.
The Freestyle Solo has a zero degree slope which minimizes the height, effectively creating negative slope and reducing wrist extension.
Narrow foot print for comfortable mousing and keying
At only 15 3/8" wide, the Freestyle Solo provides for close placement of any pointing device reducing over reach issues.
Driverless Hot Keys
Driverless hot keys for commonly used mouse actions. (Internet Page Forward and Back, Search, Home, Cut, Copy and Paste).
Embedded 10-key Simply press the "Fn" key to toggle between the embedded 10-key and the alphanumeric keys. Kinesis offers an optional low-force keypad for intensive number crunchers.
Pivot Tether™ Both modules can be connected together by attaching the included the flexible pivot tether allowing an infinite range of splay.
Double wide Delete and Escape keys The Kinesis Solo employs double wide Delete and Escape keys making for an easier target for your fingers to press.
Slide Release Button Each keyboard module incorporates a slide release button that allows the attachment of both the pivot tether and the Incline Accessory.
Quiet, tactile key switches The Freestyle Solo utilizes a quiet, tactile membrane key switch. Rated at 10 million operations the Solo will provide years of comfortable typing.
