As far as i know, the Amiga and the C-900 have different roots ...
... the Amiga was developed in the USA (Commodore bought the company
"Amiga"), whereas
the C-900 was developed mostly in Germany

Hi,
i'm not familiar with all that Amiga and Commodore 8 bit stuff, but at

it should be not too hard to get a Amiga keyboard :) ...

It's certainly not at all clear whether an amiga keyboard will work.
But it looks as though this machine and the amiga 2000 might have been
designed at the same place in germany. The c900 case also looks very
much like an amiga 2000 case. If the same engineers were used for the
two projects, they could have easily taken the keyboard circuit from
the c900 and used it in the 2000, maybe even reusing the keyboards on
the 2000 that were originally intended for the c900.
2000 keyboards are as plentiful as the 2000. Getting a keyboard
should be easy, although you may have to buy a 2000 to go with it.

Does anyone know if the commodore colt PCs use standard PC keyboards
or something proprietary like the amiga keyboard?
