I use a Belkin F1DZ104T switch at work. Seems to work quite well. There
are a couple of oddities about it. eg If I let the PC boot whilst
watching another machine, I get weird mouse gesture stuff going on
(scrolling up and down with the mouse wheel in a browser prompts it to
go forwards and back in the browser history), but otherwise works
flawlessly. Video quality is acceptable at 1600x1200 (some slight
shimmering if you look closely).

It might be the same internal gubbins as the omnicube ones, but doesn't
have audio switching support. You can use any combination of PS/2 and
USB mouse/keyboard connections though...
