 * To be honest, I actually really *like* mine.  It took me about 2 weeks
 * of hard-core using it to get used to it, but now that I've used for
 * almost 2 months now I no longer have the wrist-pain I used to get
 * regularly.

Well, I'm not going to get into a lengthy discussion about why I don't
like the Natural, but just let me point out that the reason why I
can't use it is not because I can't get used to "unnatural" keyboards.
I usually use the Kinesis Ergonomic (sells around $199 in Bay Area
Fry's these days), which is a much more warped design than the
Natural, and it only took me about 2 days to get used to it.

P.S. However, I don't think I could have ever gotten used to hitting
     the "6" key with my left hand....
