Hmm, the same as with the Schön standard keyboard? Christopher Smith also
sold an anti-bounce 8049, which had the same problems....

The *only* good things about it were the the look and feel.
It suffered from keybounce. They produced a replacement chip for the 8049.
That did cure keybounce but broke the serial ports. Hermes fixed both.
Once the thin pcbs had been plugged into the QL, the connectors did not
work with membranes.
The pcb used evaporated 'gold' for the key contacts. This oxidised and
gave intermittent faults.
I repaired many of these, and it was very very hard to
disassemble/re-assemble.
Avoid them!
