Perry Mowbray:
Thanks for the heads up Jenny: this is my 2nd day cold turkey with Colemak :D
I was going DVORAK, but the Coleman site is very persuasive, especially the bit about going QWERTY->COLEMAN was easier than QWERTY->DVORAK->COLEMAN
tinjaw:
I ordered some inexpensive good quality keyboard stickers from (http://www.4keyboard.com/colemak-keyboard-sticker-p-234.html) and I now have a colemak keyboard. I had a laptop-style keyboard that was loosing its letters so I blackened them out with a marker. Now all I need to do is get up the gumption to start learning to type with it.

Hey that's great to hear!!
I actually found it pretty easy. My main problem was that my fingers habitually went to the wrong keys.
I'm not sure what my speed is up to, as I have not done the tests in a while: but it was no where near as hard as I thought it would be! QWERTY seems very odd to me now, so I think that must mean that the cross-over is complete?
I just realized that that graphic was your keyboard!! Looks great! Well done: I'd be interested to hear how they wear...
