It would be fun to make a encryptation keyboard. A keyboard that add the text you write to a buffer, and wen the buffer is full, output it to the computer encrypted. Maybe with pgp. Such machine would probably need a led with the text you are writing. That way, you coud be using Google Docs or Office 365. And the computer OS can have a keylogger and a backdoor. And you will still be somewhat safe if pgp provide you with strong enough level of encryptation.
Congrats. You just re-invented the TPM chip. (And how do you actually guarante that your keyboard doesn't have a keylogger or a backdoor? Such things *have* been installed inside keyboards before...)
