    Hi, I've recently spilled water over keyboard and had to have motherboard replaced ($350). I'm searching for keyboard protector for further security.
    Can any M1530 owner who has used protector recommend store or website I can order?
    Thank you for the reply.

    Thanks for the info, but the url you've provided ('protectcovers') only carry M1330 keyboard covers, not M1530. Are they compatible?
    Please let me know since their customer care hasn't following me up on the issue.

    I just took a look at that. And though it does show the 1530, it's not on there as availi to order...... :confused: :( No, it would not be compatible...I think, because the 1330 is a 14" vs. the 1530 15.4". :(

    And, if you contacted Customer Care, and they haven't followed up..that's not a very nice thing (not good Customer Service). You may want to try contacting them again. ;) :cool:

    I think, that ebay might just be your best bet for ordering one ;)

    Here check this one from Ebay: CooSkins are supposed to be pretty good one's
