A friend of a friend was in an auto accident and is paralyzed from the waist
down.  He is unable to use a keyboard, but I believe he can move a joystick
accurately.  The friend for whom I am posting this article was asking about
voice systems, and I expressed some doubts.

What's available in the way of non-keyboard input systems?  (I don't remember
if this guy is a programmer or what; keep in mind that full ASCII may be
required.)
