searching for new keyboard
« on: Mon, 11 January 2010, 09:40:24 »
herro geekhackers,

after buying my model m, I'm in search of a new keyboard.

My only needs are a mini keyboard with mechanical switches or scissor switches

Also needs to be $50-100, but I'd much like it to be even less than $50.

I know nothing about scissor switch keyboards, but I'd look at the Filco Zero. ($80)

I recommend cherry ML4400 series. It has ML mechanical switch. old version with PS/2 costs around $40 ~ $70 on ebay. It has newer version with USB, too but it is more expensive.
OmniKey 101 - the perfect keyboard
Chicony KB-5181 - SMK Monterey Blue switch
Cherry G86-6241OEUAGSA - Cherry Brown switch
IBM M 1378160(Ambra)
Dell AT101w / AEK II
