There's an interesting article by Aaron Iba (main author of Etherpad)
http://aaroniba.net/articles/tmp/how-i-cured-my-rsi-pain.html
who uses a "Mind Body" approach to curing RSI. He says:
"I can type as much as I want, in whatever unergonomic position I
want, on any keyboard, without any pain."
He also says that his approach "sounds ridiculous to most people."
Now, I personally a customized kinesis board
http://stumpwm.svkt.org/cgi-bin/ratpoison.pl/jcorneli-kbd
and a clever rearrangement scheme on laptops (number row replaced with
modifiers).
I'm very happy with this, but I think Aaron Iba's essay (and the book
he cites) are interesting anyway, and probably relevant to various
kinds of pain/distraction.
