Need an onscreen keyboard?

Click n Type virtual keyboard is a free software program for those needing alternate input.

I received an email from a quadriplegic vet today looking for something along these lines - and I've been checking them out myself -so here it is. There are commercial software programs available as well, such as Aurora suite for Windows. You may want to download a free demo here.

For Mac , Keystrokes 3.6 is an excellent onscreen keyboard with word prediction.

The word prediction feature comes in handy to speed along the input, whether you're using a headpointer , mouse, joystick or other method. Keep in mind that these programs can get a bit pricey so you might want to try to get funding for them before you take the plunge.
