[pianotech] How about a 9/8 Custom Keyboard?

I occasionally see posts about 7/8 keyboards. They are great for small hands, but what about people with extra large hands. Tom Servinsky isn't the only one with "fat" fingers that barely fit between the sharps.

On several occasions I have had piano students with very large hands who could easily benefit from a 9/8 keyboard, or even larger. It would be interesting to find out how many prospective piano players gave up because of finger size problems.
