I have an Acer Accufeel (model 6501 or something like that).  It's a membrane with steel plate.  Don't think it quite looks like the picture though (or maybe that's just the picture angle).  Mine has a fairly thin profile and an large L-shaped Enter key.  It will last forever, but is nothing special otherwise.

Managed to get the Model number now, Acer Accufeel 6311

Looks nothing like the one I've got.  Mine's definitely membrane.  This guy does mention (http://www.amazon.com/review/product/B0000512HT/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?%5Fencoding=UTF8&showViewpoints=1) mechanical Accufeels.

I had almost forgotten about the MCK-142 (Adesso, Ortek, etc).  That thing is a MONSTER.  (quick geekhack search determines that we haven't talked about it since August 2007)  :)

Some membrane keyboards do disguise themselves in so-called mechanical switches.
