I've owned a few vertical mice like this, formerly known as "Dr. Mouse", now it's the "3M Renaissance" Mouse. I've had no complaints. Zero. They're fantastic. I'm using one right now. I got my friends hooked on them too.
This device helped my wrists recover from severe tendonitis; I have had no relapses. The keys are arranged in vertical columns, which is something the "New Standard" got right, but it looks as if it forces your hands to remain unnaturally close together. Also, "chording" (pressing more than one key simultaneously) just creates superfluous keystrokes.
Right now the heavyweight boxing division is in "crisis"; there are no fighters worthy of the championship belts. Why? The speculation is that, in their formative years, the biggest, stockiest kids who might make great pugilists are being recruited into other sports -- football, hockey, etc. which do not inflict brain damage, scars, dislocated ribs, etc.
Suppose you are a creative genius, full of great ideas, and looking for a way to earn a living. Which would you rather do -- Work for the games industry (suffer long hours, low pay, create derivative pap aimed at target markets) or work in IT/development (decent hours, high pay, individualized projects) ?

Aha, I was looking for a worse language than PHP and I think we've found it. ColdFusion! How could I forget about that nugget of programming fools' gold;-)
Ah, you took the words out of my mouth on this one:)

May I recommend the Kinesis Ergo keyboard?
