Hi guys
I am searching to buy an ergonomic keyboard.
I found Logitech ERGO K860 is what i need, but it is high budget and it costs the same as a 35'' tv screen.
I find it very expensive. I prefer to buy a tv instead with that money.
On the other hand, it does not have LED lights
in keyboard buttons so its keys are not visible at night, or in low light.
In the past I had used a microsoft ergonomic keyboard
but today I cannot find the same model in the market.
Should I go ahead and buy the Logitech ERGO K860?
or is there any cheaper ergonomic keyboard in a lower budget similar to that?
should I wait for the price to become cheaper in the future and buy it later?
What do you suggest?
 
the most i've seen them going for is ~$130.
that would be a pretty low quality 1080p TV these days.

What do you suggest?
why do you want the odd(ergonomic) separated key layout?

you can find very nice "non-ergonomic" mechanical versions with great switch options, customizable LEDs, media controls, etc for quite a bit less.

In the past I had used a microsoft ergonomic keyboard
but today I cannot find the same model in the market.
i still see older MS versions of those keyboards available used quite often through Facebook Marketplace, eBay, and other online sources.

keep an eye out and you should run across one for very cheap.
