Don't know too much about this one (http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-WYSE-PCE-Keyboard-Cherry-Keyswitches-Enhanced-/290521960560?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item43a4755070), other than the build quality is supposedly excellent and it is NOT PC-Compatible. I believe you need to mod it to make it so. It has an "RJ Phone Plug Type Connector".
Edit: here's an old post with more info (http://geekhack.org/archive/index.php/t-5098.html). Sandy tried to mod his to make it PC-Compatible and was not successful.

Someone took something like this and converted it to wireless by wiring it to controller salvaged from a Logitech or something.

Sandy's a guy. Just sayin'. Be respectful to the keyboard god.
Where is Sandy anyway? Now that 24 has ended, I wonder if Chloe is ever going to come back.

Well done. And not just your Wang, either.

you should hit sixty up with a pm, he might or might not be interested, i just sold him three WYSE terminaly and im pretty sure he is planning to recreate his pc-compatible wyse mod with them. He might be interested in just the keycaps, since mine had german layout, but give it a shot.

The WYSE key caps are double-shot gold. Love the arrow keys especially.
