I used a T-1100 extensively in 1992 while I was in Bolivia. I don't
remember a particular fondness for the keyboard. However, this was back
before keyboards started to suck, so maybe I wasn't as alert to keyboard
feel.

BTW : what *is* it about keyboards these days? I use a 5 year old
keytronics keyboard. The K, L, N and M keys now lack letters (right
handed guitarist with long fingernails). I've thought of replacing it,
but none of the keyboards I try have the same hard feel. They all feel
wishy-washy. I'm currently concidering a (not classic) happy hacking
keyboard, but wish I could try one out first.
