Anyone have experience using the alphagrip as a primary input device for programming? I use vim pretty much exclusively now-a-days, is there much talk about using the two together?

Although possible, I haven't remapped the navigation commands in vim. It would require some mechanism to start vim with and without the mapping, depending on the keyboard used.
One thing I can recommend for vim is to map Shift-Space to Escape. You'll need that key a lot, hence you want easy access.
I also use a simple template expansion function, e.g. if I type ;class in a C++ file, the template will generate a complete class definition including constructors and destructor. That also does not work very well due to the ; as the first character. Maybe mapping Shift-Tab to ; would make it easier.

I've found that for office software (especially the newest microsoft
versions) you can do almost everything you need with a right-click
context menu. This has saved me a ton of time by having the trackball
at my thumb at all times.
