As you likely figured out when I mentioned ergonomic, neither of those 
would be particularly useful to me here.

But $325 is indeed a bit insane.  Altho, at that price it's certainly not 
mass produced, which will certainly up the production costs quite a bit.  
It wouldn't surprise me if it was made either to order or in batches of 
10 or 20 at a time, lots of hand work, thus explaining a lot of the 
cost.  (I didn't look, the link might have said something about that.)

Here's the one I was talking about (blarg, looks like the entire logitech 
site is flash-based or some such, can't get a link there, let's see about 
a shopping link somewhere... found, watch the wrap!):

A better picture of the keyboard (black, as I have, without the wrist-
rest, which I don't use either).
