I like the ideas---I, too, have a Logitech keyboard (specifically, the Cordless Elite Duo) with volume, mute, etc. keys built in, and several shortcuts set up in (at least) a similar way.
Other than the volume and mute, and the wheel on the left side, though, I find the many additional buttons along the top almost as distracting as a mouse. Right now, they're essentially all mapped to different websites, and I still have to look at them and pick out the right one before hitting it.
Maybe it's because of too much Emacs, but I don't even think about my ctrl- or alt- keystrokes.
Don't get me wrong, I love your ideas; out of curiosity, have you tried using all the "miscellaneous" buttons and specifically liked those better?
Yeah, I assumed they were Westies, but didn't want to assume out loud just in case. Besides, this is more complicated than pinbot and the kegerator combined, so I thought it might be more of a Baja thing.
Sure, there're other Mudd stories, but they are actually about engineering (ick). When I was at HMC, the motto was simple: no pressure to drink, only to drink more.
Gentlemen, if you're reading, what dorm are you from? I'll avoid guessing to avoid insults...

I'd attribute this to the SP being the first Game Boy to have a screen that's viewable in total darkness, as well as not requiring batteries.
Here I thought I was happy with my original GBA---and now I find out the new one doesn't require batteries!
