Tipro keyboards, designed for POS systems are similar. E.g. this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Digipos-Tipro-Black-Keyboard-MID-...

Look out for PS2 and a hard requirement to program them via a real PS2 (not a USB emulated port).

I've bought one (cherry switches sans keycaps), filled it with blank keycaps and now I need to put together some electronics to make it useful (it looks like it uses something like SPI internally).

But first, I'm stuck trying to remember why I thought it would be cool. Because it's just an 8x16 grid of switches.

Yesssss, I'm waiting for one of these to show up: https://www.ebay.com/itm/264811664552

Point-of-sale hardware is so much fun to play with, and there's so much of it out there!

At least that hybrid model with QWERTY has aplausable use case. But mine is just a grid. As for mine, there's only so many shortcuts you can assign to 128 anonymous keys...
