    Perhaps not a common question: does anybody have a picture of the backside of their Asus K42JV laptop?

    I am living in the Netherlands and I want to buy a German version of the Asus K42JV because this laptop (or anything like it) isn't available in the shops here. I would like to know which type of keyboard fits in the K42JV so I can replace the QWERTZ keyboard with a standard US QWERTY keyboard.

    I can't find any spare (chiclet) keyboard for the K40 series but perhaps another type would fit as well. I know all U30 and UL30 series of Asus have the same keyboard. But as far as I know this keyboard doesn't fit in the K42JV.
