data input @ the speed of speech/ thought

Current data input methods and devices are either too slow or too unergonomic or both. Work is being done to address the issue - we have R&D on speech recognition, or a number of alternative keyboard layouts aimed at "ergonomic and faster" typing and so on. BUT, not enough is being done and not fast enough. What could we do to bring higher awareness to business and users, alike, in the importance of user-frinedly, speedy data input?
