From CES 2002, it's the amazing "Guy's Keyboard". This keyboard was designed for guys who type with 2 fingers (hunt-and-peckers). It features a complete reshuffle of the keys. Not even the numbers on the keyboard are in numerical order.  Why this particular keyboard layout should work better with 2 fingers is beyond me. Actually, it turns out there's the inventor's explanation on the company website. See the link below.

The order of the letters and numbers on the Guy's Keyboard lay-out shown below:

 

Years ago Leo Laporte of TWiT fame said he showed this keyboard to Peter Jennings (host of World News back then) and he liked it! I suspect Peter was kidding. Or maybe not. Maybe in you're a 2-finger typist this appeals to you. And leave to the amazing Giz Wiz Chatroom to use Time Machine to go back in time to find a copy of the non-defunct Guy's Keyboard website.
