Different keyboards in different T60s?

I'm trying to figure out if the different size T60s all use different keyboards. This site:

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... MIGR-62728

seems to indicate both the 14.1" and 15" machines use the same FRUs (I think these are all 4:3 aspect-ration screens). Will the FRUs in that table work in any 4:3 T60? Do the 15.4" wide-screen models use a different (incompatible) keyboard?

Thanks

All the same with upward compatibility to t400\500. T500 has the same k\board, only with holes in the backing plate - see notebookreview for pictures.
Do a search.

Then there goes the great chicony\nmb debate - enough said

You can also use KBs from the R60/R61 series (4:3). I have an R61 KB in my T60 (NMB 42T3109/42T3143).
Don't know about WS models, but I assume those are different.

All T6x use the same keyboard. And the same keyboard is also used in all R6x, Z6x and R400/R500/T400/T500.
