I love it too. Bought one about ten years ago, overpaid like hell (airmail & customs) but never regretted for a while. I'd just like to add two things to consider:
1. It's much easier to learn touch typing on this keyboard than with traditional one. Why? The keys are aligned in vertical columns so you reach to them with up-down movement, not diagonal. And keycaps are nicely profiled so fingers just drop on them.
2. It's frackincrazyawesome for playing FPS/TPS games! In neutral EDSF position you have all expected keys under four of your fingers PLUS six under thumb. I'm not sure if it beats game pads but I never needed to check it out (we're talking about Jedi Academy, if you know what I mean). The only PITA are games hardcoded to use arrow keys - they just plainly suck.
Cheers
