Most tablet PC's allow mapping of at least a few bezel buttons to keystrokes.
Also many external input devices exist for physically challenged persons, most of which input key scan codes.
I would think that being able to map these key scan codes (key combinations) to screen actions such as the SPEAK button would be quite useful in speading up conversations and in reducing the number of pen actions required.
Thanks for raising this idea; I'd not considered this before. I've not felt input at a physical keyboard to be as interesting as handwriting or using the on-screen keyboard in the Speech Assistant. But having the hardware buttons which map to keyboard key presses result in specific action within the program really sounds interesting. I've just uploaded another video of a test I've just done to map the "Enter" key press to the Speak button. I'll update the software as I get specific requests.
