So, the only reason to have a DVORAK keyboard is for faster typing speeds? And how is that managable? The most commonly used letters are placed in quicker areas?

Apparently, thousands of words can be typed with just the home row, which means less finger movement. It also eliminates "one handed words" like "agree".

It would be aipdd noob. The point is, it eliminates a lot of words that are typed with 1 hand in QWERTY, which is uncomfortable.

Correct. Before the days of the computer, when typewriters were used, secrataries would occasionally type too quickly and cause the typewriter to jam. Typewriter manufacturers attempted to solve this problem with the QWERTY layout, which is deliberatly inefficient. Now that we no longer have to worry about mechanical arms jamming, a more efficient keyboard layout was designed: DVORAK. For most of us, though, the increased typing speed isn't worth the time and effort of completely re-learning how to type.

I'd be surprised if a major store did. To type it you gotta be pro and pop your keys off. I think I will do that right now to my World of Warcraft zBoard
