But that's still an undefinable term, and it doesn't seem necessary to restrict "keyboard" in that way. There are keyboards designed for people who have the use of only one hand, but those are still keyboards. There are Dvorak keyboards, but those are still keyboards. There are onscreen keyboards where keys are selected with a breath-stick or an eye-tracking mouse, but those are still keyboards (or at least keyboard interfaces). They're all keyboards.
