I use mine practically every day, too.  It's all I need for word processing,
database, and games.  I like reading e-text on it, because of the complete
absence of horizontal scrolling bars in text windows.  :P

I've used it for so long that I know almost all of the extra characters
(standard translation/option key summoned stuff) of my commonly used fonts by
memory -- I just touch-type them out.  I also think Finder 6.0.1's keyboard
interface (just type the first letter/letters of the icon you want to select)
is the most natural and easiest GUI for a touch typist.  Just remember to name
all your files with unique starting letters (i.e. my Davex-8 folder is named
xDavex, to avoid confusion with another "D" folder).
