There's no accounting for (your) taste ;-)

You might have trouble finding tri-colour LEDs in the shape used on the
MOTM600.
The current P3 switch boards will take standard tact switches as well as
the Multimec and Maplin parts, and there are a huge range of different
caps for those. There are also companies who will custom make any shape
of key cap you like, for a price.
The caps on the MOTM650 look like they could be standard tact caps.

Personally I like the feel and appearance of the Maplin square keys
best, and they are pretty cheap too, which helps.
I just have to hope Maplin don't discontinue them.

Cheers,
