Are Bluetooth mechanical keyboards “a thing” (as the kids say these days)?

(I mean, mechanical in whatever way you people use it, not in the sense that all keyboards are inherently mechanical).

I touch type but it’s two-finger because I watched too many “Scrappy journalist against the world” movies from the 1930/40s?

Given the absolute (and seemingly universal) poo poo-show that is PC laptop touchpads I would be 100% shocked if there was a non-terrible one.

heck yeah! i wanted to post my quick take on the elecom deft pro here after i got some time to settle in. if you liked the discontinued logitech trackman wireless this is basically the best replacement easily. the ball felt a bit rough at first and i took a pass and used the trackman ball, but it was starting to break in after a week or so

it's also fairly customizable for buttons, speed, and dpi while being either wired, proprietary wireless, or Bluetooth. im honestly surprised this thing exists because it's like a wishlist of trackball user features

I use both a thumb ball and hand ball at the same time. One with my left hand and one with my right hand. I'm not making this up they are both really useful for different things.
