How about the Heath Robinson approach - use the current keyguard as a 
template and buy a piece of rubber and a sharp knife...?

Velcro spots to keep it in place perhaps

Hello

Can anyone suggest a solution for a pupil who finds the keyboard 
easier
to use than the joystick but keeps catching his fingers on the 
keyguard?
He can't use the keyboard without the guard as he presses every key on
the way to the one he wants.  I've tried him with an on-screen 
keyboard
but that's even slower than his typing.  Does anyone make a rubber
keyguard?
