Avant Stellar

 

I haven't seen this mentioned here. The Avant Stellar isn't an
"alternative" keyboard in the sense of the Kinesis or Maltrons, but
may be of interest to some here - I know some of us love the IBM Model
M ...

What the Avant Stellar brings to the table is a full set of F keys on
the left as well as on the top, remappable keys, and excellent
construction (it weighs 3 kilos! (6.5 lb.)). It also comes with a
very hefty price tag.

Re: Avant Stellar

 

Looks good but it is pretty pricey. Is there any indication that the
remap-ability is saved on the keyboard itself? Meaning, can I remap to
Dvorak, then plug it in to another computer and be able to type in Dvorak on
a US Qwerty OS? I get the feeling I'll have to have their software on any
computer I plug this keyboard into.

Also, this remind me of a question I wanted to ask the group...
Do any of you know of a Dvorak => Qwerty dongle/in-line hardware converter?

Cheers!
Brian

Re: Avant Stellar

 

I have an older model of Avant Stellar, bought many years ago. The
remapping is saved in the keyboard itself.
