Have you heard anything about how they are to use? Or firsthand experience with a one handed set up?

I was looking at the frogpad. http://www.frogpad.com/ They actually have a bluetooth model now... cool.

Hmmm... My hubby's right arm is paralyzed and I had not heard about a one-handed keyboard. Since he has no use of his right arm at all, he hunts & pecks entirely with his left hand. I think it might be worthwhile to investigate the Frogpad that Bob mentioned and see if hubby thinks it might work for him. Wonder if they offer a 30-day return policy?
