  Our mainframe guys recently got rid of some big
hard drive chassis,
 and in the process of cleaning up they were going to thow away (!) a
 couple of little Memorex/Termiflex one-handed terminals that I've
 lusted after ever since I saw the service engineer using them.  I
 think they're a 1 or 2-line LED dot-matrix display, and   they have some
  form of "chording" keyboard on the
front.  
 Sounds like the old Microwriter, or even the original chord 
 keyboard that Doug Engelbart used with the mouse.

 I'd love to see a picture of one of these, to get some idea 
 of how the chording works.  I have a couple of Microwriters: 
There are two photos of Doug's chord keyset in issue #4 of
MacWorld. If you can't find a copy, let me know, I'll see if
I can remeber to bring it in to the orifice and scan it for
you.
