The Sun Type 4 keyboards use very similar technology. If you can find
used Sun Type 4 keyboards, occasionally for sale cheap, you can "raid"
them to steal the little round pads and they fit exactly into the TRS-80

Compaq Portable (the original and the II at the
very least, not sure
of others in the line). Perhaps not really a classic, but I like mine...
- The TRS-80 16-bit line (II, 12, 16, 6000).
