Could be worth it just for parts if you don't want to do a Soarer's mod

Soarers mod might be a fun project. I'm gonna pick one of these up.

These better actually be BS /s

You get one free slap if it isn't.  That or I may let you have my AT&T BS for shipping if you get screwed over....again.

AT&T KB305B are the best!

Do you have the terminal emulator version?

thanks for the tip on these. I have a spare arduino pro micro, might want to give it a shot.

edit: oh I saw this guy last night before he posted the terminals.

If you don't want to do a mod, here's some normal model Ms for $15

("more than 10 available" )

Buy in bulk, be set for life.

I'm at work and IE is retard, but this should be the post on the one I got (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=33130.msg1436839#msg1436839).  The 305B definitely is interesting.  I got the PS/2 version.

Ah the "normal" version. Interesting to see yours has the white barrel frame. All the AT&T KB305's I know of were black.

I got the "terminal emulator" one. Note the split + key on the numberpad and the extra legends. it's PS/2 as well of course.

Sadly no model number

It's like $60 to ship one anyway. I'd be happy to mail forward a few, but it's up to you. That's on top of the CONUS shipping fees, which I can only describe as "exorbitant" ($25 per KB, let's hope he combines shipping.)

received mine today.
well packaged (new box and foam crushing) worth $17.99? Nope.
Is it a sweet deal overall? Definitely Yes!
