I just found http://www.amiga.org/gallery/index.php?n=1603 . This looks genuine.

I now own that particular keyboard and it is indeed the genuine article. :)

As I recall the keyboard came from a company in the states with some business connnection with Commodore.

I think their intention was to release it as a licensed expansion until the demise of Commodore. :(

CEI. They were Commodore's largest distributer in the U.S.

Yes Lierbag here on the Amiga org had one. CEI were a distributor out of Miami and they had these after the demise of Commodore. Lierbag found out about these guys they kind of had a store front walked in and picked one up for $40 or $50 bucks. A good score.

Lierbag had a legendary AmigaCD32 with the SX32, FMV, SCALA, Genlock, Elan perfomer, DCTV. I dunno if he's still in the Amiga scene.

Yep. He's left the scene. I sold him my A1200 a while back for his VJ'ing since he needed a serious upgrade from his limited A600 setup, but said eventually he would ditch Amiga.
Amiga 3000D UP and running! Hear that clicking. 8)
Amiga 3000D & 4000D in storage sadly.

Nice find, I only thought the reworked CDTV keyboards existed.
Which also works quite nice with a CD32 and SX-1.
