So, you’re wondering about the Colemak keyboard layout? It’s actually not that esoteric, it’s designed to be almost like QWERTY but with only a few modifications.

There is a user community with good things to say about this and discuss about this.

And an interesting idea after reading about overlay keyboards. So, you want a keyboard where it is easy to change the printed letter keycaps on demand? Well, you can print sheets of paper and put them on top, or you can re-arrange the keycaps when you have a removable keycaps keyboard.

Now, here’s my other own idea. You can use a videoprojector to project the keys onto the keyboard, then changing them in software is easy and quick.
