Typing only on the keyboard can be very nice for posture, but I feel that Vim users may think slightly differently if people invented a better keyboard with a pointer device attached.

Then you wouldn't be "taking your hands off the keyboard", you'd just be engaging in a different motion.

That's how I feel when using a keyboard with an integrated trackpoint.

Not everybody agrees, of course.

Thinkpad external keyboards, both USB and bluetooth - currently typing on one of the former, with one of the latter in my jacket pocket for use with my android tablet.

I’m suprised no one tried an eye tracking cursor

I dont think eye tracking is precise enough for that.

Similar to the "KeyMouse" keyboard?
