Here's another cool thingy I found while looking for one-hand chorded
keyers: http://bit.ly/Ww75Xs

It uses five finger-mounted accelerometers and has a wireless version. I'm
not sure which of the wearable options would be least cumbersome, but I
kinda like the image I linked; it's got such a cyborgal aesthetic... :)

(Speaking of which: I'm forming "cyborgal" by taking a standard suffix for
"organism" and applying it to the shortened version. I like it, but is
there a standard opinion? Given that we're a fractious and independent lot,
I'm assuming not.)

Can't wait to get my hands on (off) a Leap! So exciting!
