Google, "Lenovo ThinkPad USB Keyboard". That is what you are looking for.

Why do you want a trackpoint and a touchpad?

That is why I tried to help you. But TBH I know nothing about scissor switches.

No winkey (can't you just autohotkey that?) and it looks as though it's missing the little red nub; probs ps/2 as well.
All you need to do now is convince the seller to sell it to you, sans rack and monitor.

Looks like you have to pick between winkey or touchpad.

Ultranav is what you need to search for.

I just stumbled over an ebay auction for an Ultranav keyboard.
Auction Seemingly he sold one in better condition for 22 € before...
link It's USB, shiny, ANSI and no winkeys, but maybe you can use it for spares to resurrect yours. Don't know how those look inside though.
Regarding the Keysonic ones:
I once bought one of those (540BT) for the HTPC but never used it, they're 29x20cm, cheaply build, stupid layout for typing, and the Touchpad buttons seem to have no actuation point at all. Plus I don't dig those soft touch plastic surefaces at all.

no he didn't say that. It's listed as "used" (working condition), and advertised as "good".
However since this lacks any of your wanted features except the USB, i wanted to say:
Maybe with this and your broken one you can make a keyboard thats working and is also a stepup featurewise. GLWbuy

Tell the seller that shipping within EU is the same as within DE, except that the shipping costs are 17 EUR (insured package) instead of 6.9 EUR. He just uses the same box, same address label, same DHL-sticker, same way to the same post office and hands over the package at the same counter to the same person.
There is no difference except for the price!

I've seen these keyboards already at local reseller:

It is weird that slovak layout has ANSI enter, as I would be happier with an ISO one.
Also it doesn't have touchpad, which is required.
I forgot - I don't mind buying "manufacturer refurbished" or "slightly used" from ebay or other source.
It's probably a stock photo of the American one. The Slovak layout would almost certainly be a regular ISO version.
