Erg IO is meant to replace a traditional keyboard, so it would be very difficult to misuse.
The only foreseeable misuse we could consider is users not taking advantages of the ergonomic features, instead typing with poor form and causing the keyboard to feel awkward to use and possibly cause more issues. These would be the same issues as a traditional keyboard though as use is completely up to the user.
Possible Changes and Updates
The only real updates that may come to Erg IO would be software update for the customization app. Any possible additional features or functions would likely come through this software without needing to "reflash" the keyboard.
Another possible change could be releasing a revised version of the keyboard, possibly adding a slightly different layout or other features to make it more appealing, such as backlighting, different switches, better adjustments, etc.
Disposability
Electronics often have a hard time being recycled properly or sent to the right facilities to hand e-waste, so disposal may prove wasteful, however many older keyboards are often sold to thrift stores, put on the curb for scrappers, or sold to someone else , so we hope the Erg IO keyboard would be recycled by users giving them or selling them to someone else.
