The minimally fancy keyboard to do that with would not be fancy at all. If it has a micro controller it could do it.
It would need some sort of writable persistent memory, possibly in the chip. Most approches would not include it in the chip but this would consider stealth. Still, looking for a flash memory unit somewhere detatched from the microcontroller would be a tell-tail.
Still, quite a few chips use static ram, which is semi reliable to store data. I wonder how big a buffer would have to be to have 50% chance of a password being in there.

You worry about targeted attacks when I think we all know the government isn't the threat. They can sift what they need from mass data collection or the blunt instrumemt of tossing your ass in jail for contempt of court.
The threat is someone with financial motivation to pull information. Data collection for advertising or the computer equivalent of a mass ATM skimmer.
That all ignores the greater threat. Not that someone would put in something secret to steal the data. No, the threat is that you'll agree to give it to them in exchange for a deal or discount. Look at the device Progressive puts in cars now. Or the data collection almost every service you sign up for makes you agree too.

heh I'd be more worried about that phone you carry around. Sends out a fuck ton of signals, wifi, bluetooth, cell. Has a GPS to track your ass. Doesn't even need GPS that much to triangulate your position. Plus most of the time it's hard to open and inspect. Put a keylogger there from the factory and cucks won't know, put a software keylogger and cucks wont know. Never trust anything factory made.

Any recommendations on a good keylogger?

It depends why do you need one :) I use computer monitoring software to control my workers, it is completely legal and they know about that.
