I still prefer the F to the M.. however I can't really type of qwerty boards anymore for any length of time without risking RSI. Kinesis Advantage for me for the rest of my life.

+1 to Kinesis Advantage. I prefer the "original" / non-360 for its advantage (sorry) of just working as soon as it's connected to a computer. The 360 needs to pair it's halves that results in a disconnect/reconnect dance which annoys me a lot. I assume it's only due to my setup, where I have two laptops connected by a USB-C to a monitor, all accessories are in turn connected to the monitor.

yeah no, the left/right pairing has been, in the past, kinda wonky. Not a show stopper for me as it only seemed to happen when I turned the board actually off... which is not very often.

Newer versions of the firmware seems to have mostly resolved this. You just need to make sure you turn on the left half slightly before the right half.

Good point - however I only manage to turn them on/off by yanking cables, it's incredibly annoying to do. The on/off switch just changes from wired to wireless and still keeps some connection.
