Whiskey in the Jar-o:
Any idea what kind of switches this thing uses?

iMav:
Wow, really going out on a limb:

The LEDs and volume control keys remind me of the KBtalKing keyboard. I wonder if they are related...

Nonmouse:
Well, the specs from here match up with tactile Cherry MX switches- 20 million keystrokes, 4mm travel, 65 gram (2oz) keyforce, as well as "fast input key support for three different types of angles on stage." (from here) which sounds like the angled keycaps that Cherry supplies for different rows.  "mechanical key characteristic lilting sound of typing.  Comfortable keystrokes can enjoy." sounds like Cherry blues, to me.  (Maybe.)

And it claims 6-key rollover in USB use, or 11-key with the PS/2 adapter.  Here's Sanwa's page for it.  (For some reason, Google translation doesn't work on it- Babelfish does, though)

Yeah, I can definitely see the resemblence.
