I really like my Logitech Ultra X.  It's an OEM keyboard and not 
available in stores.  I got mine at Newegg for about $20.  For me the 
tactile scissor switch i.e laptop style keys are preferred.  It is one 
of few modern keyboards that don't try to _improve_the layout.  It's a 
straight PC104 layout.  Now if I could just get X Windows to use the 
media keys.

I mean to hook up one of those new Apple keyboards real soon now.  They 
are so so sweet!  http://www.apple.com/keyboard/  They are available in 
wired and wireless.

And if you really like tactile response, the one true keyboard is the 
IBM Model M. It also doubles as a weapon for beating burglars who invade 
your home.

Later,
Jason
