If you want to get them cheaper, you can get a refurbished model here for $240: http://208.84.117.151/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=CKBDUSB(R)

That’s how I got mine – works perfectly, looks brand new, includes full 2-year warranty.

Hi Fedyashev,

Yes, those F keys are small.

I don’t have other mappings. Because I use quite a number of computers at different locations, I haven’t been able to use the Kinesis that much. I did figure out how to make tab completion work in VIM, here:

A couple of years ago I read through and followed a few tips from Hacking Vim: A Cookbook to get the Most out of the Latest Vim Editor. I highly recommend it.

I don’t understand how you can use “F” keys for Kinesis macros.

These buttons are so small for me so I need to see what button to click.

Thanks for your mappings, but do you have some more?

I don’t know how Kinesis macros can help(I’m VIM user also)

Thanks, in advance
