does that design use buckling springs?  the keys look different than on the typical IBM boards.

DEFINITELY not buckling springs.

This is the same as the last model mighty mouse keyboards Unicomp made.  The replacement keyboard they are working on will have buckling springs.

Does this one look familiar?

I'm hesitant to believe Unicomp is capable of any real design chops with the exception of shaving the edges off the Model M and calling it a spacesaver. That and making the LED graphics FUGLY!

iMav:
Same thing.  That is what is up for sale on Ebay.  Unicomp made them for IBM (as then did with Model M's).

I think we need a female member to give Jim (@ Unicomp) a call.  Maybe he can be sweet-talked into giving up some additional information regarding the Mighty Mouse replacement.  :)
