Mistel Barocco – It’s here!
The Mistel Barocco is an oddity of a keyboard, being a 60% split design it is not something you will see everyday. I was offered the chance to review it and now its finally here I just wanted to tell you a bit about it. (It will be a few days before the review is done, as it has only just turned up today)
The Mistel Barocco, has an ergonomic design that forces handedness. So right hand on the right and left on the left etc. This is not an uncommon thing among keyboards in general but most are full size or are full size boards rearranged with better ergonomics in mind (the ErgoDox for example). The Mistel Barocco gives you the even more portability than a 60% keyboard and also has the improved ergonomic design.
I have only begun to test it out so I want to stay away from choosing a side before I have had a chance to truly review it. Hopefully it will indeed live up to my expectations.
