Twadlee TP69

A 69-key keyboard having a Trackpoint unit under an additional 70th keycap.

The layout is similar to a conventional 60% keyboard, but with additional 1u keys down a central split. The spacebar is also split, with the intervening space occupied by three mouse buttons and the left half replaced by a relocated BACKSPACE key. The right half of the spacebar is 2.25u. The space vacated by the BACKSPACE key is split into two additional 1u keys. The additional keycap on the home row does not cover a switch but a Trackpoint pointing device. All told, the 61 keycaps of the conventional 60% layout are augmented by an additional 9 1u keycaps, and a 2.25u keycap to replace the conventional 6.25u spacebar.

Given the unconventional layout, only non-sculpted keycap profiles are practical. I use DSAs.
