[DE] Gateway AnyKey
« on: Sat, 12 February 2011, 17:01:14 »
There is a BROKEN Gateway keyboard on ebay.de that looks exactly like a Gateway AnyKey. It is sold together with another board.
ISO layout. It is hard to see, but it is most likely in German layout.
Shipping to Germany only. Payment by money transfer.
No bids yet. Ends at 3 PM (15:01) today.

Although the Gateway AnyKey is a rubber dome keyboard, it is completely programmable without any software.
There are several threads about it on this forum, and a extensive page on Wikipedia.

Edit: The keyboard is broken. I apologize for missing that.

Last time I tried selling one in the US for $20 and no one bought it...

It's got double shot Cherry MX compatible keycaps, albeit low contrast (gray and white instead of white and black, which is a shame).

I've got a Gateway AnyKey like this which is fully working, but is missing one key cap (got lost during cleaning somehow).

If some of you is interested, I would sell mine for 10 EUR plus shipping.

You can get the missing key cap from the auction.

Ah, well ... Not a day goes by without me making a fool of myself in one way or another.
I'm sorry I missed that. I'd better sharpen up on my German.

I have a working AT model Anykey that I'm willing to sell for $20 (plus free homemade AT -< PS/2 adapter).

It's currently in pieces for cleaning, but I'll reassemble it. If it doesn't get sold, I'll probably use it for the keycaps if I ever get a real Cherry board.
