Best place to source a UK Keyboard for a T42P 14"??

Any body know the best place to source a UK Keyboard for a T42P 14"??

Thanks,

Dan.

PS - When I hear people talking about palmrests, are they talking about the area either side of the mouse, or an extended palm rest that can be added on?

1: The UK? *
2: Just the bit each side of the Ultranav buttons

* The UK English keyboard available on the US site is no good?
This link shows all the available options for T4*

Hi Ian,

Thanks for the reply. The link you suggested gives a part number. But I can't work out how to buy it! I'd like to buy it in the States. When I go to the IBM parts store it doesn't recognise the part number. Weird.

Dan.

This is total nonsence - we have the correct number but it's impossible to buy the [censored] thing - sorry Dan but I've tried too and it seems they don't want to sel it to me!!

I can only suggest you call 1-888-SHOP-IBM (as is marked on the pages I've been looking thru) and ask them.

My T42 came from the US (from Bill) and naturally was equiped with an American English keyboard - I went onto the site, got the correct part number for a French keyboard and ordered it here in France - it arrived in 2 days - we've spent more than 2 days simply trying to buy the thing!!

Sorry - please let us know if you ever manage to get it...
