I used to work with a guy that mounted a keyboard vertically on each side of his chair, using both at once.

A true legend.

I'm typing this from a split keyboard right now. If someone made a nice set of arms that could mount my keyboard halves to my chair arms (with enough room on the right for a trackpad) I'd absolutely spring for that and get rid of my desk. Then when Apple makes a Vision Air I can just go full cyberman and drop the monitor too.

It frustrates me to no end that the split form factor has not gotten more poplar. It naturally seems a better fit for the human body. Instead, I am stuck paying a premium to kinesis for their garbage software.

Glove80 has a quick release mount system meant specifically for that use case. The first version was better in my opinion, but they had trouble source some parts and just launched a version 2 with the parts they can get.

I do something similar at home: lie on my bed with a keyboard half leaning on each of my hips.

One of these days I'll get around to 3D-printing a clamp or something.

I saw someone playing a concertina once and thought hmmmm... a split keyboard might work there. Never got round to doing anything about it, though.
