I recently had the opportunity to use a Sun 386i to try to port a large
piece of Sun-3 software (about 300k lines).  Needless to say, I used the
keyboard a lot.  And I had serious problems with doubled characters,
particularly "b" and "n".  I am a fast typist, but I never have this
problem on Sun-3 keyboards (or for that matter any other keyboard I use
these days).

So if you are thinking about buying a Sun 386i, try the keyboard first.
And if you're thinking about buying some for others, have THEM try the
keyboard...
