And back on the stenography-keyboard like thing -- what about morphing
keys? If a keyboard had actual screens on the keys, and the keys change
(the actual symbol) based on the context of whatever you're doing. I know
we have macros and reprogrammable keyboards, but morphing the actual symbol
on the keys might be neat.
A keyboard using small 48x48 pixel OLED screens on each of the keys has
been done. It was many years ago and they were super expensive at the
time. As a result they were not commercially successful.

Changing keys would be rather hard on a touch typist, don't you think?
