Keyreative products are not eligible for loan, nor are Lofree products handled by Sanyo Godo Kaisha.
There is no charge for the loan, and the borrower is responsible for return shipping and other costs.
The page also provides information on large-lot corporate sales, and it is believed that the free rental service is intended to promote the introduction of the system to companies.
According to an interview with the company, it already has a track record of corporate implementation, and “we hope that businesses in a wide range of industries and occupations, including Japanese subsidiaries of foreign companies, venture companies, and start-ups that are compatible with the US Array, will consider it.
We believe that development is currently underway for a Japanese-language version of NuPhy products, so we can expect corporate adoption of Japanese-language layouts in the future.
After all, the image of keyboards adopted by companies is often “black full-size pantograph keyboards,” and it is my impression that very few companies actively pursue the quality of their keyboards.
I personally believe that improving the quality of keyboards could lead to increased work productivity.
In fact, major manufacturers such as Realforce are introducing case studies of their use in the business-to-business market as content, and there seems to be a movement underway to introduce this technology to companies.
Our media can also provide general consultation on keyboards, so please contact us if your company is interested in this service.
It takes some getting used to, but Japanese input is possible without problems even with an English layout. In fact, most of the keyboards I use are English or English-based.
