Not to sure on the Boing ball, I do like the old "A" keys on my A1200 keyboard.

But can't find anything in thier own shop!

@KennyR

I agree, although to get a keyboard manufactuer to produce a "Classic Amiga" like keyboard would probably be hideously expensive, given the tiny production run.

I will prob buy one later, or mabe see if i can design an interface to use the old keyboard with a PS/2 interface

Hi,

We just uploaded an order form for the Cybo@rds, there are no prices there for individual countries, but we will charge shipping at costs.

@ MAD
Actually, many of the early Amiga keyboards were produced by Cherry, this was one of the reasons why we picked them.

Re: Another way to make an Amiga keyboard

Make a keyboard in non-querty layout like Dvorak, therefore only Amiga years will use the better keyboard. Everyone else will wonder why they are typing so slow. Amiga users feel unique so why should they be stuck with Querty keyboard, the ancient failure, like everyone else? -david

Dvorrak has some layout porblems so maybe someone can fix them. (location of the ";" key)
