The official nominees are:
Filco Minila Air
The Minila Air is the flagship of Filco's new compact Majestouch Minila keyboard family. It finally brings wireless bluetooth to mechanical keyboards of a main brand.
Look mum! No cable!
IBM industrial Space Saving Keyboard
The IBM Space Saving keyboard is an 84/85 key Model M keyboard. The iconic design of the standard version is only topped by the rare industrial version of the same board.
Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom.
IBM "Kishsaver"
The IBM "Kishsaver" is a 62-key keyboard for the IBM 4704, named after it's rediscoverer, Kishy. It is the only true compact IBM Model F keyboard known, and got again in the spotlight by this huge find from tinnie.
Is it a HHKB Pro II? Is it a Poker? No, it's an IBM Model F with capacitive buckling springs.
Matias Mini Tactile Pro
The Matias Mini Tactile Pro is a "better keyboard for your Mac" and uses Matias Alps clicky keyswitches, making it an interesting alternative to compact MX keyboards.
Bling bling. While Apple confuses keyboards with wafer-thin alu sheets, Matias delivers the goods!
PJE's OneHand - 20% keyboard
The OneHand chording keyboard is a custom keyboard project by PJE and a great example of how to build your own keyboard. It uses a custom PCB, Cherry MX switches and a Teensy controller.
Operating a motor vehicle with one hand while posting to deskthority with the other. It is now possible.
