I think a 1-Handed keyboard would be supreme.

Unless, we could get that Military Software Pilots use to guide things with their eyes. Now that would be the mouse i want (except blinking for clicks wouldn't work)

Speaking of this keyboard.

I have had a MS natural keyboard for forever now. I am so used to it, I have trouble working the normal keyboards. Do these altered keyboards do the same thing to you guys?

Those helmets and the calibration are a ton of $$. The helmet is made just for you.

Plus, your eyes get really dried out, and it gets uncomfortable after the first few hours, so I hear.

I am the same way if I try to use a regular keyboard it is a pain in the butt.

My friend has a keyboard that is shaped like a 3D Pyramid. He wraps his had around it and types. I seriously have no idea how he does it but he can type faster on that than anything else.

Hey, we're talking future stuff he and eye drops can cure dry eyes (and I am used to dry eyes having worn contacts for longer than may of our member have been alive)

It will happen some day, maybe not too soon, but some day.

I'm about 15 years away from perfecting the TUI (Telepathic User Interface -- well that's what the customers want anyway, but they would have real problems with it because they tend to not be able to make up their minds -- and I know you know what I am talking about yak :lol: )
