That is an interesting concept (but not new). For comparison with
GKOS, you might wish to go through the checklist at:

I just thought, on that very page, going through the 35 items that
GKOS fulfills and check how the joy stick version compares with
it. ; )

oh ! the joystick version is a very poor second to the gkos keyboard AND the
gkos concept .. gkos is almost matchbox sized COMPLETE replacement

the joystick is a concept to fulfil a totally different need ..
simplicity and
retention in memory by the very illiterate indian adult population

it will be easy for old ladies and men too .. those who never tried
the pc due to the confusing qwerty layout

the joystick version is not and cannot ever be a replacement for the gkos
