Is there a keyboard with similar build quality and tactile feel as the Das Keyboard, but not nearly as loud?
I love the Das Keyboard, but it's too loud to use in a shared work environment.
Any keyboard recommended should currently be in production and available for purchase.

The Tactile Pro 2.0 builds on the best features of the original, and adds a few more! Computer users who crave the feel of Apple and IBM's quality keyboards of 15 or 20 years ago will love the Tactile Pro 2.0. Unlike other keyboards made today, each key on the Tactile Pro 2.0 is built on an individual Matias mechanical keyswitch.Based on the legendary Alps keyswitch used in the Apple extended keyboard and the original Tactile Pro, the Matias mechanical keyswitch recreates the tactile feedback and force curve of the original Alps design, ensuring maximum performance, greater comfort, and faster typing speeds. You will feel the difference immediately. The Tactile Pro 2.0 keyboard's Hi-Speed USB 2.0 dock is up to 40 times faster than the low-speed USB 1.1 hubs found in other keyboards. It's also much less clutter than a standalone dock or cable.

Question just says that any keyboard recommended should currently be in production and available for purchase. Tactile Pro 2.0 meets that condition.

As I'd said, I've seeing lots of reviews saying the quality of it was lower than the Tactile Pro 1.0. From these reviews it sounds like the build quality is no where near that of the Das Keyboard.

The Tactile Pro was replaced by the Tactile Pro 2. Unfortunately, every review I've seen of it says it is not nearly as good as the orginal version.
