Hi,

The URL for the KeyGlove is http://www.eyetap.org/wearable/keyglove.html

I built one of these some time ago...  I must recommend trying to touch your
fingers and thumb together in all the different positions necessary before
building it.  I found that if I put a row of studs down the side of the
index and middle fingers, as well as down the thumb, on the finger tips, and
on the palm, I got positions that were the most usable for me.

I put a page up at http://www.wirejunkie.com/resources/wearable/keyglove/
about the one I made, if you're interested.

It may take a while to get used to typing with it...  Also, I keep having
visions of accidentally grabbing a metal pole while wearing it and shorting
out my glove :)

Enjoy,
