Nice. I'm glad to see this get some real world use. You need to get this in front of some advocacy groups.
I agree and I'm glad as well - I think it'll be really beneficial to those who have difficulty interacting and communicating with regular input devices. More people should see this!
Almost 3 years ago I shared a small web-app on HN http://hackerne.ws/item?id=715265 and got a lot of positive feedback. While I couldn't do anything right away (especially due to my cousin's health), I knew what my long-term mission was. Mid-2010 I quit my job and started working on KType http://ktype.net. After 18 months of research, learning, and coding, tonight was the first real-world test of the app and I couldn't be happier at the result. My cousin was very happy to finally 'say' something on his own and so were his parents.
I have no idea if my app will be financially successful or not but I just wanted to share this happy bit of news with HN because you guys were the ones who encouraged me to go this route. Thanks!
