[sllug-members]: Switching keyboard layouts (Dvorak)

Hello,

I'm looking into get a new keyboard and have come across a few things
I forgot about over the years such as the Dvorak layout.  I've got a
few questions for Dvorak (or really any alternative-to-Qwerty keyboard
layout) users:

How do you deal with using other's keyboards?  When you help someone
on their computer, setup a new system, or troubleshoot problems; it's
unlikely you'll find your keyboard layout being used on their system.
Is it difficult to "float" back and forth from Dvorak to Qwerty?  Do
you just pop your keys off your Qwerty keyboard and rearrange them for
a Dvorak layout or is it better to purchase a Dvorak-intended
keyboard?

Are there Bluetooth Dvorak keyboards?  Ergonomic Dvorak keyboards?
Bluetooth and Ergonomic Dvorak keyboards?

Thanks!

-Chad
