We have the PC SERIAL A.I.D. (stands for Alternate Input Device), which
allows several modes of input, including on-screen selection of characters
and Morse Code, each mode accessible using a variety of devices, including
sip-n-puff, pressure switches, etc.  Made for the IBM-type machines by

Ontario M5t 1R5 Canada, phone 416-533-4494.  I don't have the cost handy,
but I'm sure it's in the $500 and under price range.
