I touch-type at 70-80 words per minute. Has anyone who works this quickly found the flattened profile of the new keyboard difficult to adapt to?

I personally have been using this keyboard since its release. I used the very clunky previous version of Apple's keyboard, and I was VERY used to its format. This very thin model did take me about 1-2 weeks to get used to. Now that I have used this model for a few years, I CANNOT use any other keyboard. The thinness really improves your typing speed by quite a lot. (The keys press down 1mm instead of the clunky 6-7mm of the original) So little effort is required to type, you'll actually FLY across the keyboard! I would personally recommend a switch to this from any keyboard, PC or Mac.

It's all personal preferences. Personally, I think it is easier to type on. It is also a lot smaller and quieter than most other keyboards.

I'm in the 60-65 wpm category and while there was a transition period (at first it was very weird), I'm now a complete convert. When I have to use other keyboards now, my speed slows dramatically! Those other keys are simply too clunky now that I'm used to the low profile keys of this keyboard. Highly recommended!
