Help needed for tendonitis victim -- text-processing without keyboard?

A friend of mine has chronic tendonitis in her wrists.  She is finding
typing more and more difficult as the months and years go on.  I'm not
sure why, but she finds it easier to write by hand.  

We are looking for information about software and/or hardware which
can be interfaced with standard text-processing software, on a
personal computer, which will minimize or eliminate typing.  My friend
mentioned that she had heard of something for Apple computers (I don't
know what kind) which allows hand-written input (I guess this would
be a pen-based computer?)  We would like to know about general kinds of
computer input products available for people with hand disabilities, 
as well as specific products.  

Thanks!
