Hello,
right now I use my apple keyboard for some operations with the mister but I need something only for the device. As I have many problems to keep the wireless connection of my 8Bitdo controllers I think its not a good idea to wireless with a usb keyboard incl. mouse.
Are there any recommendations where the key layout fits c64 / amiga demand?
Was looking for a c64 keyboard or something vintage looking keyboard but didn't find anything authentic looking!
USB or wireless keyboard and which one?

Re: USB or wireless keyboard and which one?
Are you using a hub? Is it 2.0 or 3.0? The blue 3.0 ports (even operating in legacy 2.0) will put out interference casuing weird behavior with anything wireless.
You could build a keyboard that has the layout and look you prefer. I prefer 60% or 65% keyboards with real arrow keys.
Found an 3d printable 'C64 to cherry mx adapter' (you might be able to fine reproduction style caps if you look around)

A few examples (seems like the ortho keyboard guys are C64 fans)
