You could always get a keyboard like this. It’s a large LCD screen with transparent keys on top, so you can program each key to display whatever you want- keys change between lower and upper case when you press shift, for example, or have the font displayed on each key be whatever you want.

I was sooo close to purchasing one of those (Optimus Maximus), but realized that it would be too dependent on software from a minor actor, so I decided to wait a few years until the functionality got standard on all keyboards.

From what I remember (the Maximus has since been discontinued) it wasn’t a very practical keyboard, mostly because all the key caps were completely flat so it was uncomfortable to type in.
