Here is the layout I currently have -- If i can get control of that thumb-up key for a third layer it will be complete.

Aww, man. I want a data hand. Can't somebody make an affordable one?

yep I bought it as soon as I saw it $900 used. The sad part is I will only be using half of it. on the bottom of the unit there is a list of a bunch of patents so i suspect that is the reason noone else is making them :) Its in ...

So I finally got my hands on a PRO II from ebay -- totally stoked!! I have reprogrammed most of the keys, but I cant figure out how to program the DEL key and the TAB key. When I enter Program Mode, then hit W, the three lights on the right hand unit are all flashing. then if I hit the DEL hey to ...

The key well used for mousing (left index finger in mouse mode) simulates something like that. If you press between two of the N, E, S, W keys, both of them will go and you go NW, NE, SE or SW. This would not be accurate for typing though. It will probably register one of the keys first before ...

In that case I will send them an email to ask. That is assuming I will be able to get one at all -- I added one to my cart and sucessfully ...

hoggy: I dont see how the BAT or handykey would be preferable to a left Datahand, at least for desktop use. My opinion is it boils down to the sheer number of keys that can be activated quickly and comfortably (before resorting to chording) with a single human hand. With the Datahand you have 25, as ...

I knew you would ask about the z :) Statistically z is the least used letter in English, so with only so many buttons the z would be chorded. Also possibly the q in favor of a period or return. x, q, z are least used, in that order.

I do wish there were more buttons -- possibly 8 surrounding per ...

I am on a quest for the perfect left-one-handed typing device that would be used in conjunction with a mouse (specifically a Logitech g700) in the right hand. The goal being never a need to move the right hand off of the mouse. A datahand seems perfect, but before I buy one I need to know if the ...
