FITALY is a layout of the 26 letters said to minimize travel from lettter
to letter for English, as I recall. It's designed for small-screen
handhelds, for fast text entry, using a finger or stylus.

The array is like this:
(apologies for a prop. font; composing in Verdana 14 Bold)

z v c h w k
f i t a l y
n e
g d o r s b
q j u m p x

The third column is "c t n o u", next "h a e r m".

FITALY is part of a larger effort, Instant Text (no CamelCase!):

It's fun to note words embedded into "arbitrary" letter layouts; an early
typewriter (Blickensderfer, not the Hammond, as I might have erroneously
mentioned in a previous message) had the near row as
D H I A T E N S O R. One sees "BWW" in the near row of a Dvorak layout,
and FITALY has "jump" as well as Italy.
