In my opinion, in the great world of the future, we will have a one-button
mouse and a multi-key one-handed keyboard that we will learn to type on
with more than one key at a time.  The keyboard will probably have a
thumb operated case shift and eight keys, two rows of four.  That gives
2-d location and 162 physically convenient keypresses plus the mouse
button.  Such an arrangement keeps up from having to let go the mouse
to type and vice-versa.
