Look at these ebay items:
http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-X31-UK-KEYBOARD ... dZViewItem
http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-X31-X32-UK-KEYB ... dZViewItem

Just let me know if you're going to bid so I don't bid higher than I already have.

The X30 and X31 keyboards are interchangeable. The lighting panel is slightly different. If you get an X31 keyboard and need the lighting panel, I'll send you one (no charge) as I have a number of extras.

Thanks - Bob

Thanks Bob, that's magnificent. Don't know why they didn't appear in my eBay searches before though...

I've taken the Buy It Now one, so as not to disrupt your bidding :)

Bob, can you take the 'lighting panel' from the old X30 keyboard and put it on the new X31 keyboard? On T23's they called these panels "easy-button covers".

Yes, very easy to do. A little pressure will pop off the cover off - the other one snaps in very easily. It's a good design and fit. I have extra X30 covers if anyone needs them.
