I don't understand why a binary keyboard would need two buttons. Isn't this really a trinary keyboard?

you need 2 buttons for a binary keyboard due to the fact that you need to actually input 2 separate characters... the 1 and the 0...

If you had such perfect rhythm you could maintain a consistent baud rate, you would only need one button.. :-)
