I've just been "tapping" around, and realized that I could probably 
type with 2 fingers (pointer and thumb for space/shift) at a reasonable 
rate, even on a micro-QWERTY keyboard.

By micro, I mean something appx 1/4 the size of the HPLX series
keyboards, and wrist mounted.  This would be the size of an
"oversized" watch, probably 2.5" long and 1-1.5" wide.  A numeric
keypad could be mounted on the underside, to save on space and
interference.  We are talking about TINY keys, after all.

That would be very workable as a wearable keyboard.  Has
anyone tried a "full" keyboard this small before?  If so, how did it
work out?
