The Sun-2, Sun-3, and Sun-386i have different keyboards. > The one on the Sun-3 is the nicest keyboard I have ever used, bar none. I've used Sun-2 and Sun-3 keyboards, and find that the Sun-3 is by far the better of the two. The little rubber keys on the Sun-2 were...interesting, but those little springs (well, the noise they make) underneath the keys was REAL irritating. The Sun-3 has a very nice feel to it, although it, every once in awhile, beeps at me when I let loose with a burst of keystrokes.
