Anyone know if they are any good? I already have too many small boards, so I won't be trying one out.

The smaller keys make it look like a rubber dome.

If you look at this one (http://www.lindy.co.uk/multimedia-keyboard-pro-usb/20833.html), they claim "High Quality membrane tactile key switches". No gold contacts, though.

Looks very similar to a cherry G84-4100 with ML switches.
