Rich -
The Microswitch division of Honeywell makes a large number of membrane
keyboards. From numeric keypads to full computer-type keyboards. Your
local Honeywell sales critter should be able to help.
I also have info on a firm in Buffalo that makes a variety of keypads
into which you can insert your own key legends. We had them make one for us
that could be back-lit with an electro-luminescent lamp for the darkroom.
I've got the day off today and I'm writing this from home, so I don't have
the info at hand. If you need the info fast, or I can help you in any way,
send me email with a FAX number, and I will zip it off to you. I have some
Microswitch data sheets, and I'm pretty sure I can get info about the Buffalo
firm (I think their name is Tapecon, but unsure.)
Happy Huntimg
