with reference to the alpha keyboard on Wizard:

I have the OZ-7000 w/ alpha keyboard, and I am actually rather fond
of it. In fact, the biggest problem with the new upgrade "superwizard"
is the Qwerty keyboard (though it is big enough to be useful for
real writing).

However, as an organizer, the ABCD layout is perfect for one-handed
typing. Try typing onehanded on standard qwerty. A real pain.

Organizer in left hand, type with the right, it really makes 
a lot more sense then typing qwerty with one hand or putting the
damn thing down on a desk to type. Much easier to enter data while
driving (use one hand with wizard on passenger seat or use both
hands and drive with knees :) ) or while walking.
