Is a R61/R61i keyboard usable in a 15" (4:3 LCD) T60?

#1 Post by Johan » Thu Aug 07, 2008 6:02 am

I want to get a new Danish NMB keyboard for a 15" T60 (model/type 2007-QPG). According to Keyboard service parts - ThinkPad T60, T60p (many types, incl. 2007) a Danish keyboard of the desired NMB brand has FRU 39T0964. Unfortunately, this keyboard is not available from IBM Denmark spare parts.

According to Keyboard service parts - R60, R60e, R61, R61i (14.1 inch and 15.0 inch standard screens) a Danish NMB keyboard for any of the R60, R60e, and R61i also has FRU 39T0964. However, also according to this site, there is another Danish NMB keyboard available for the R61 and R61i, this being FRU 42T3149!

So, what I wonder is this: Will the (R61/R61i) 42T3149 work in a 15" T60 model 2007?

Thanks very much in advance to anyone who can shed light on this! :bow:

Thanks very much, Andrew - your help is as always fast, friendly and invaluable! What would I be or know without this fantastic forum??!

Great... now I'm immediately off for some serious spare-parts shopping! :-)
