The Latitude is Dell's business product line, and all the parts are interchangeable by design. I'm not much familiar with the Inspiron. Bummer. -- Ben ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
Re: Looking for a laptop keyboard
Well, I've got a D-series laptop for parts at work. It's motherboard is shot, but I can part with the keyboard if you're interested, albeit I need a nominal fee since it's my company's property. I pulled it out and confirmed that it's not the same U-shaped ribbon you've got. If you want to try it out, and see if it's the same ribbon pinout at least and will still reach, I can try to meet up with you. I'm pretty busy these next few days, obviously, but let me know if you're interested. -N On Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 9:37 PM, Dan Miller wrote: > > > On 12/22/09 21:18, Ben Scott wrote: >> On Tue, Dec 22, 2009 at 8:07 PM, Dan Miller wrote: >>> I would need a keyboard that fits a Dell PP21l. >> >> Google says that translates to "Inspiron 1300".

Many of the keyboards look the same on the top, but its the ribbon that sets them apart. Mines has the "U" shape as shown at: http://www.amazon.com/PWR-V-0511BIAS3-US-90-4D907-N01-9J-N6782-G01-20092860397/dp/B002OJA4L0 There are others that look the same but don't have the shape.

(They outsource everything, so any given part will come from whoever the lowest bidder is that month.) Hence the recommendation to look for a Latitude D series. I only know this because we buy Dell at work. Unfortunately, I don't have any keyboards I can give away. -- Ben ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
Looking for a laptop keyboard
A friend has a laptop that the keyboard does not work correctly. I'm looking at replacing the keyboard. I would need a keyboard that fits a Dell PP21l. The current keyboard is Model: NSK-D5G01 P/N 9J.N6782.G01 I know I can order online, but if possible would like to get this back together soon. Does anyone have a spare keyboard that would fit or know where I can get one? Thanks!
