You could try the Microsoft Comfort Curve 3000 keyboards. They are almost like ordinary keyboards, but the extra curving really helps with Emacs. And they're cheap.

I also have a Kinesis one that I used for some years. Those require some training.

looks like the 3000 has the same horrible reduced-size Escape and F-key row that I've had the misfortune of using on the Sculpt and others.

The older Curve 2000 series might be a better choice if you actually want to use those keys with any frequency

(And to bring it back to emacs, I find myself using ESC-ESC-ESC quite a lot when I (or it) get confused about what state things should be in)
