The Comfort Keyboard is very special as well. It is split into three separate sections with cables in between, and you can turn them into stilt keyboards as needed. You can remap them, except for the Esc. I used Dev-Labs Keyboard Remapper for putting Esc on the stilt. The program is pretty good if you just need to remap a couple of keys (but not arrows, Backspace, Delete, numeric keypad keys, Alt, and so on).

If you are touch typing, you don't need remapping, but you'll use all three Comfort Keyboard sections, and you'll make one or both alphabet sections into stilts, depending on whether or not you plan to switch sides.

If you are a hunt-and-peck typist, you need only the Comfort Keyboard numeric keypad section (but you'll need the other sections for remapping), which you'll make into a stilt, and a LittleFingers keyboard.

If you don't mind doing everything with one hand, you can type with either a LittleFingers keyboard or a normal keyboard and let it go at that.

The Keyboards
The two special keyboards that you'll find will help you the most are Comfort Keyboards and LittleFingers keyboards. The latter has smaller keys that require less finger stretching, and it also has a built-in trackball. This is important because you'll have no room to operate a mouse, so your only two choices are trackballs and MouseKeys (the keyboard keys move and click the mouse). For a good Microsoft MouseKeys primer, search for q139517 and select the first search result article that comes up.
