I have been using dvorak for quite a while. I can say from my experience with it it is much better than qwerty. Your fingers never have to move very far to get the right key and that decreases typos. I am not as fast as I could be yet but I have gotten to the point where I am slower at qwerty than dvorak. I just popped all the keys out of my keyboard and rearranged them so I wouldn't have to get another keyboard.
To get good at it though it takes a lot of practice and you strictly have to stay with dvorak even if you can type faster on qwerty. I used qwerty since birth and i could type at 60 wpm. I switched to dvorak a few months ago and I am at forty. I am slowly increasing my speed though.
