AFAIK, Logitech doesn't make any mechanical keyboards. Correct me if I'm wrong.

The KING of mechanical keyboards have *always* been IBM Model M. But they're so treasured that its difficult to attain.

I've been researching into mechanical keyboards, and I came to know TVS Gold Mechanical keyboards are very sturdy, and priced in India.

I spoke with the Area Manger of TVS-E in Cochin, after coming to realize Rediff shopping featuring TVS-E Gold keyboards at Rs1300s. He told me that price is incorrect, and the actual price is Rs1600.

2 days later, almost all online shopping sites updated the price to the range of Rs1600-2000. I don't know what happened.

As per our conversation, he informed me mechanical keyboards are not stocked in any retail outlets. If you are interested, contact nearest IT shop (IT Net or IMC), and they'll source it for you.

You could also mention your specs (USB vs PS/2 etc.)

I still haven't bought mine.

But eBay is still selling some of TVS-E Gold ones at Rs1350s.

YMMV,
