as a dvorak user i find his measurements very interesting.
has anyone noticed that while the distance traveled in dvorak is higher than both other alternatives, it alternates hands much more frequently (23% vs. 31%+ same hand frequency), and moves towards the top row more frequently than to the bottom one. I don't know about you but for me it's easier to extend my fingers top than it is to flex them towards the bottom row.
there is also less time spent on the number row, but repetitions with the same finger are more likely.
i still think there ought to be a better way to deal with special characters than shift keys
