Actually it was a bilingual keyboard from intex featuring both Hindi and English, It was a very nice piece of hardware that any person will just love to have . Have a look
The keyboard layout however doesn`t fit in the phonetic layout that i use in scim , But still it`s a nice thing to posses, looks like it`s a remington layout still google for layouts and if i can`t find one to embed in scim will try to make one of my own, let` hope i find one.
Here`s a pic of the layout
told about this keyboard to Pandey sir and got a very good response , might make labs to get some of these.
And yes they were very cheap just for 200 bucks....
So dude go get it

you could probably check if any inscript ones are available.. typewriter one is good to use if you already have lot of typists following it (eg. in a govt office).. but for new users..its just a waste to take a backward step.. learning inscript is better, or making a bolnagri one.
also ask for any stickers, typically stickers used to be sold for different kind of hindi (& other lang) keyboard layouts.. these could be stuck on existing keyboards (or better still on old ones with nearly wiped out keys).
to go a further step might be interesting to find a sticker maker who can make bolnagri stickers :-)
Stickers suck , they make typing rally hard .
My view is phonetic is better than inscript . I am planning to contact intex guys to push them to bring phonetic keyboard
