After receiving my new customized Cyborg II yesterday, I took a while to configure the device to conform to my hand's geometry as best I could. I loved the ability of tilting the towers to create a better curvature of the natural inclination of our hands to grasp objects. The one thing I noticed, the thumb pad where the two joysticks are, has the ability to not only rotate forward and reverse to the palm and away from the palm, but it has some leeway to tilt to the left or right as well. That gave me the idea that my baby finger has a natural tendency to curl/claw inwards towards the ring finger when it is at a natural relaxed resting state. The finger tip is more in, while the knuckle below the metacarpal joint is away from the ring finger.
I would suggest the the baby finger and potentially the ring finger towers could be modified on a future version of the cyborg to tilt away from the middle finger, thus giving the baby finger a more natural resting place and the alignment of the fingers, both baby and ring to not incidentally strike the knuckle tower buttons when trying to activate their own knuckle switch actuator. What I mean with respect to that is that my ring finger knuckle is awfully close to the baby finger tower top as that baby finger tower is positioned so as to offer the best comfort and closeness for the finger to rest without activating any switch actuators on the tower. it is a tight position, but so far I have not had cause to accidently touch and thus 'press a key' that is remapped to one of those baby finger tower switches.
Still, the full range of positioning that is present is incredible, well thought out and spaced to give so many choices for activating keys with little effort.
