I've been speaking to our VP about keyboards - he was curious about the boards I had lying around and mentioned he's looking for something lower impact, as he suspects he's starting to get arthritis. He types a ton, it's basically his entire job to write proposals and emails.

I don't know if he's quite ready to jump off the deep end for something like a ZSA Voyager, and most likely he'll end up trying a mass produced scissor switch board with a numpad first... but are there any other recommendations in between a $100 mass produced logitech ergo board and a $350+ ZSA that are ortho & low profile?

You might want to have a browse of !ergomechkeyboards@lemmy.world as well as the subreddit. Within that budget the best bet is likely something DIY. Though there is a middle ground with vendors offering build services and kits that are hot-swappable, turning "building" into "assembling".

Have a look at some popular choices and lists likes in the EMK wiki that I put together.
