Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue for Mac Multichannel Bluetooth Keyboard

MultichannelTM technology

No more sacrificing typing comfort on your smartphone, tablet or laptop. Just hit a key to instantly switch between your favorite three Bluetooth enabled devices while continuing to type on the FS2 Blue keyboard.

Sleek, low profile design

Most keyboards including ergonomic models have a 10 degree positive slope from front to back. These designs tend to bend your wrists. The Freestyle2 has a zero degree slope which minimizes the height, effectively creating negative slope and reducing wrist extension. The slim design provides you a 2-in-1 office and travel keyboard.

Accommodates a wide range of individuals

From small to tall and body types in between, the Freestyle2 allows for maximum flexibility catering to each individual’s unique needs. Out of the box both modules are connected together by a flexible pivot tether allowing an infinite range of splay. Disconnecting the pivot tether allows up to 9 inches of complete separation between the left and right keying modules. Our experience is that heavy set individuals really appreciate this feature, because it allows you to extend your hands to the keyboard without having to roll your shoulders inward to reach the keyboard. Medically, this design greatly reduces and or/eliminates ulnar deviation.  It’s great for your back as well, since rolled shoulders make it hard to maintain healthy back postures.

Optional palm supports

Optional padded palm supports reduce wrist extension by keeping wrists neutral.

Left side driverless hot keys & Bluetooth Multichannel keys

Driverless hot keys for commonly used mouse actions. (Internet Page Forward and Back, Beginning of Line, End of Line,Cut, Undo, Copy, Select All and Paste). A vertical rib is located on the inside row of hot keys to provide tactile notification to the user.

Top row driverless hot keys

Like the new iMac keyboards plus more! Esc/force quit, Brightness, Expose, Dashboard, Play Audio, Audio Volume, Dock, Eject & Off/Sleep.

Familiar key layout

Familiar key layout provides for minimal adaptation time.

Low-force, tactile key switches

The Freestyle2 utilizes a quiet, low-force, tactile membrane key switch. The typical average maximum key force of a switch is 45 grams. This is at least 25% less than most traditional and many ergonomic keyboards such as the Microsoft 4000 with maximum key forces of over 60 grams.

Reduce forearm tension with the optional VIP3 and V3 accessories

The VIP3 and V3 accessories attach easily to the base of the Freestyle2 keyboard allowing quick and reproducible tent settings of 5, 10 and 15 degrees greatly reducing forearm tension. For people who want integrated palm supports we suggest they purchase the VIP3, and for people who prefer tenting without palm supports we suggest they purchase the V3.
