Happy Hacking Keyboard is to die for.  It is the one true keyboard
layout and all this PC, Johnny-come-lately crowd who F*D up a
perfectly good keyboard layout can rot in h*** for all I care.  The
USB version even has two additional USB slots: mouse and memory card
or cell phone work well there :-).

Of course, the HHK is just a Sun Type 3 keyboard, with an inverted T
arrows added.  Sweet feedback on the keys, and really worth the price
of a ticket to Japan to pick it up at PlatHome in Akihabara :-).
