DataHand

In January 2009, the company's website started taking orders for a "limited number of new DataHand Pro II units".

[6] In 2019, a longtime DataHand user going by the pseudonym JesusFreke released an open source DataHand-style device called the lalboard, with plastic parts manufacturable on a home 3D printer, hand-solderable circuit boards, and off-the-shelf magnets.

[8] In 2024, Svalboard launched the Lightly[9] DataHand-style keyboard, which includes trackpoint and trackball pointing device options, as well as a self-print kit [10] for builders who want to make their own.

[citation needed] Rather than being spring-loaded, the buttons are held in place with magnets and are activated using optical sensors.

The button modules in which the fingers rest are adjustable—each side can be independently moved vertically or forward and back.
