Yes, I know I'm late to respond to this topic, but I've been away for a
while.
Several years ago I ended up going to my GP with RSI in my hands and
wrists -- the doctor suggested the usual things about resting etc.
Eventually I realised that the problem was just that my chair was too
low for the desk, so my wrists were at the wrong angle. Once I had
bought a better chair, the pain went away.
These days I use the keyboard more than ever, and have no problems. So
don't forget the basics -- see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergonomics
for example.
