Let me jump ont this wagon too.
(Having taught morsecode receiving and sending to radio-officers for 5
years)

I was taught the 'EU-way', key on the side of the table. So, I taught
that to my student also.
What i see and feel when I do it the 'US-way', elbow on the table, it
works fine as long as I relax and let the wrist talk. Not any different
from the 'EU-way'.
I would use different keys for the two ways though.

(PS: most of the time I use a vibroplex now)
