What worked for me is binding ESC to 'jk' in vim. It's perfect because you basicly never need to actually type 'jk' in any text and its located where the right hand rests anyway. If you have never tried this you should give it a shot.

For those who want to try it:

    " In insert mode use 'jk' as Escape key
    :inoremap jk <esc>
