From what I've read, those don't have the same feel as the keyboards used in the laptops and are definitely unrelated hardware. Since the keyboards are one of the "switched/repaired in < 5min parts" of (older) thinkpads, I don't get why there isn't just a case with an USB converter available. I would pay way to much for an authentic external Thinkpad keyboard. Nothing I have encountered so far feels comparable.

The older versions (like in the earlier link) differ from the laptop counterparts. The recent ones are supposed to be much closer: https://www.thinkscopes.com/2015/08/10/thinkpad-compact-usb-...
