Pros and Cons for different layouts

I think the best way to judge a layout is to assign scores to ngrams instead of just keys. I guess 3-grams should be enough for good results.

Indeed, the carpalx tool which Jesse linked above, analyzes typing effort in terms of 3-grams. However, it uses much different criteria than AmigoNico does. (AmigoNico - excellent writeup, by the way.)
