Today we look at a battleship offering from AT&T. The design has many small differences from IBM's, enough so that it's difficult to know who truly made it. Hope you enjoy the video! :)

Space key on numpad was common on the 122-key 3270 keyboards:

My theory on these keyboards is that AT&T licensed the design from IBM, but manufactured it themselves. The FCC IDs for the keyboards listed Lucent (who were owned by AT&T) as the manufacturer.
