I have heard about a keyboard that could be designed that would be one
step beyond the Dvorak. It would have just one row of keys, and key
combinations would signify the letters. So keys 1 and 5 together could
represent "B", keys 3, 7 and 8 could represent @, and so forth. The
name of this idea is a "chord board".
So far as I know, one has never been produced, and a web search turned
up MIDI stuff. Maybe I have the wrong name. But I was thinking this
would make a great interface for a wearable keyboard - a pressure
sensitive glove would allow you to type while playing "air piano".
Any thoughts?
