If you want to go really fast you can use the Velotype. The Velotype
keyword has about 20 keys. The layout is so that you can use it 
without moving you hands. The speed up is that you type common groups
of letters by keying more keys at the same time. After 20 to 30
ours training you can use it faster than a standard keyboard.
Speedups off two to three times are common.

I have never used it and don't known of it is useful in a programmers
environment.
