I love the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard, but they were discontinued earlier this year. Can anyone recommend a replacement?

Specifically, I’m hoping for something with: Ergo shape, Thin / low height, Minimal travel, Minimal pressure, Completely silent

    Wow, that’s a great help! I love the look of the K860 - it’s like a sculpt clone. I would buy one right away, but now you’ve gotten me interested in checking out all these others… Is there somewhere I can try this stuff out?

      Depends on where you are in the world - e.g. here in Ukraine you can occasionally see an ergonomic keyboard or two among the office keyboards in electronics stores.

      From my own experience (having replaced my Sculpt with K860 when it came out) I’ll say that it feels pretty similar, but keys take slightly less force to actuate. Supposedly Microsoft Surface Ergonomic Keyboard is also similar, but I haven’t had a chance to try out that one.
