Thanks! That was exactly what I was looking for!
I like the creators quote here (as a Dvorak user I get this all the time!)
"* Sitting down at a QWERTY keyboard. People make fun of us when we can’t use their keyboard, but honestly, it’s really annoying. I’d like to have dvorak with me all the time.
"

You are right about it being a bit pricey. And the shipping is $29!? I don't know how that's even possible. The device is size of (and probably the weight of) a pack of gum (back when gum came in 5stick packs .

Arduino might work. That is a good idea. I have a couple of them so I'll give that a shot.

Cheers
