Hi,
Actually universal design does not mean that everybody is forced to use
the same UI, rather the other way around, that an app or the product
you are designing must meet users way of using the device, and that real
world users use devices in many different ways.

Dunno if anyone read these articles about using a chorded 6-finger
input system to type on a mobile device. It would seem that it should
be much faster to input this way but they haven't done real
testing/analysis on this. It also requires holding the phone sideways
with the screen pointing away so you can put three fingers on three
dots on either end of the screen. I've always been in favor of
'universal design' where everybody uses the same basic UI so this
seems to go against that. At the same time, if it were 2-3x faster
than the current on screen keyboard input, maybe it would be worth it.
