The Suntronics KD-81 is a full sized keyboard made specially for the Timex 1000/Sinclair ZX-81,. It is an excellent keyboard with the Timex legends silk screened in two colors. The keyboard comes with a shielded case into the Timex board fits. There are two oversized SHIFT keys, and oversized ENTER key, and yes, a full-sized SPACE BAR! The key feel is excellent (the keys are comparable in feel to the ATARI 800.) There is very little work involved to install the Timex board into the KD-81 case (no soldering at all.) The only tool needed is a screwdriver. Even a first-timer could do it. Just remove the TS bottom, unscrew and lift out the TS PCB, and then insert it the KD-81,. Insert the 3 included screws and it’s in!
