Wow sorta back into my manic state

was talking with my dad last night and it really stimulated me so i've spent all night working on an idea of makin a keyboard one handed. due to current restrictions this is based mainly around the number pad including and limited to including the six keys (insert home etc) and arrow keys. Also i wish to make a rotary system for the mode of the pad.

To do this i might pull out the scroller from my hatid mouse, seeing as that has a decent a2d converter. wire that into the un mapped ports on the keyboard layout. only two bits at the most. up and down...possibly a third if i set it up to kill the power to the pad. this could include sending a signal to my linux which dis-mounts the thing....oh expansion, build a gig flash drive, have it require two ports and i've got linux on a keyboard tehe ^^
