Actually, unless I'm missing something, what Sibelius has is exactly the way the revamped Simple Entry works in Finale. Left hand chooses pitch (using A-G), accidental, etc., while right hand chooses duration. This is different from Speedy, where the qwerty keys form a 3-octave keyboard, with the pitches in order. There's also the slight difference that in Speedy you type pitch first and then duration, while in Simple (and I think Sibelius also) you choose a duration and then type the pitch.
