This is my current typing speed using my #Quirkey #MicroWriter

@pwarren

(typo: #Quirky != #Quirkey πŸ™ƒ)

got my Quirkey chording keyboard built and working! Now to learn how to type on it, hopefully before my hands get too bad for using a normal keyboard!

Thanks to the Everything Open conference for introducing me to it :)

With the new left-handed #Quirkey keyboard, I'm now using the PC with the left hand on the "keyboard" and the right on the trackball, giving the left-hand design a good workout.

Problem is, I've half got used to it, and I'm totally confused over whether I should be using my left or right hand when it comes to doing other tasks!

So the #Quirkey code for the #raspberrypi pico version has now been updated to trap USB errors and reset if detected.
