How could joysticks replace keyboards apart from forcing you to use a virtual keyboard with a joystick? Is everything else about computing the same or is it some form of fantasy joystick centered computer? Anyway what's more important is that joysticks already exist in computing and we know they serve a specific purpose and really suck for the rest cause we tried. We designed the computer after all so we control how we interact with them. Not like we found them in the wilds and they somehow only had a joystick.
Instead of typing with letters we could perhaps invent a type of joystick-centric gestural language, similar to inputting tricks in a skateboarding game
How about something like orbitouch?
That is an interesting keyboard. Not something I will use but can help many get surfing the web.
