I think that Apollo keyboards in general are poorly engineered.  I hadn't
run into a keyboard with contact bounce for YEARS--until I recently started
using a low profile DN300 keyboard.  I hadn't SEEN a keyboard using the
archaic REPEAT key--until I started using an Apollo.  The 3000 doesn't seem
to have corrected the latter problem.  I haven't used the 3000 enough to
notice whether the contact bounce has been fixed.
