I'd like to know what (if any) terminals exist with keyboard feel roughly
matching that of the IBM Selectric.  I know about the IBM 3101, but that
thing is such a turkey in other ways that it's useful only as proof that
such feel is practical.  Surely there must be others.

Don't bother telling me that a click or a beep is an acceptable substitute,
because I don't think so and neither does my sizeable user community here.
I also am aware of some terminals with very different but quite nice feel
(such as the HP 2640 series), but they're not what I'm after just now.

Also, is there any source of keyboards or keyswitches with such feel that
does not require buying a whole terminal?

Please mail replies, I'll summarize for the net.
