I have the Nostromo and it works really well for me. Then again I am an avid gamer as well so I have a lot of muscle memory tied up in it. Does take a little setting up as its not application aware to the point of that some of the other devices are.

Doesn't look that small (any she said jokes?), but I guess on the right of the keyboard it might be viable. You could also consider a nostromo game pad at that point. I tried using one for a while actually but it didn't click for me, they're not bad though, and a good deal cheaper than that pad.

Meh, just thought I'd toss it out there for what it was worth.

Neither goes any length to addressing the fact that if you frequently both write and interact (something Matt does, I'm sure) it's not a viable solution. You need your keyboard mostly centered and your wrists more or less spaced a certain way. If you're a lefty it's not possible, currently. Does XSI fare any better for lefties?
