Chalk another one up for the ol' Model M, but I reckon it needs some improvements in this modern era.
I would pay $100 for a Model M clone with:

-USB 2 connection, plus inbuilt hub

-Windows keys

-Volume knob/keys

-Media control keys
I specifically get my PS/2 keyboards without Windows keys because they look somewhat out of place in the absence of Windows :p
On a Mac though you need the Windows key so you have enough keys to cover Command, Control and Option!

There's also Unicomp, which still sells the Model M design.
I'm not sure if this fits all of the bill, but take a look if you have not seen it:

Yeah, unfortunately neither of those fills all the criteria. I'm guessing that most people who like clicky keyboards prefer that they do not have iTunes/shortcut keys. Maybe the TactiloPro3 will have them.
