Re: DataHands experience

How does it take you an hour a key at 25wpm?  It's taking me a while to
adjust to my DataHand too, but that's partly because I'm using Dvorak.

I always lock my computer when I leave it anyway, so I'm not sure about how
that polling thing works, but you should be able to lock the screen with a
button or something.
