Moving to non staggered keyboard

I just got me a used TECK and am currently trying to get to terms with the new non-staggered layout. I'm on my third day typing on it and I'm just about to throw it against the wall. Repeatedly.

Are there any tips to make the transition less painful? It's not so much the keys that are in a totally different place, but due to the missing staggering, I'm constantly hitting the wrong keys. It's especially prominent with C<->V, V<->B,`<->1.

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong and should totally change my hand posture or something...? Any hints welcome before I get really violent with that poor keyboard.

Cheers,

mjl

Fair enough. It's getting better by the day and I no longer have violent thoughts. I do pause every now and then trying to remember where that &(!@#$& key has gone though.

I'm now in the "how should I remap the board so that it's easier to type and no one but me can use it MUHAHAHAHA"-phase. Fun.
