what are the specific differences between this model (Pro) and the (edge one) besides the backlighting? and are the keys spaced exactly the same?

Hello, The Freestyle Edge has Blue Backlighting, Palm Supports included, Braided Cables, 8 Programmable Hotkeys, 9 Configurable QWERTY-Windows Layouts (User can reconfigure these for Mac, Dvorak etc). The Freestyle Pro has No Backlighting, Palm Supports are sold separately, Standard Cables, 8 Pre-programmed Hotkeys (User can re-configure), Pre-configured Mac Layout and 4 Mac keycaps (Layout 2), Pre-configured Dvorak Layout (Layout 3), Pre-configured “embedded” Numeric 10-Key on the right side. If you have further questions we can be reached at 800-644-9525.

Is there a way to get keys with standard Apple Mac labels rather than the Windows labels? (option, command keys)

They are included with the keyboard

I need a keyboard that responds fast and is ergonomic, which model would be good for a person who types all day and has to be fast?

I use this at a tech support job typing for 10 hours a day. Zero wrist or finger issues! I can type at around 70-80 wpm on it

Can someone post pictures of the bottom of the freestyle pro? i want to see if it's modifiable to use with their ascent riser.

I originally bought the Freestyle Pro ($169) and the Ascent riser. I decided to return the Pro and swap it for the Freestyle 2 ($89) keyboard. The Ascent riser worked fine on both of them. Hope this helps!
