Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards

Rules

Keep it ergo

Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)

i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²

¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

Many years ago I had a ThinkPad and I had such a nice workflow using the track point. I had good precision without having to move my hands. Now I've moved to a split keyboard (kinesis freestyle edge currently) but I'm wanting to get something similar back.

What options exist for integrated pointing devices such as trackballs, track points, or touchpads? All I've seen is the UHKB and some 3d printed models.

@Xephopiqua
I'm using a #Skeletyl as my daily driver at the moment and it is ingenious (coming from the #sweep). However, I would never recommend using it without a 30 degree tenting. I'm now very curious for the #charybdis.
