    Are T400 and T410 keyboards interchangeable?

    I'm thinking maybe because it looks close with regard to the overall shape despite the bigger escape and delete keys on the new T410 keyboard.
    Does anyone know for sure?

    I believe they are not interchangeable.

    they are non-inter-compatible. Is there a reason why you want to change the keyboards around?

    Not compatible. Look closely; the top row isn't the same for both. I would switch if I could though; the keyboard key edges are closer together, the delete key is bigger and therefore more usable. The old keyboard is very good however, tested and tried.

    Why bother fixing something if it's not broke.
    On the other hand, if your current keyboard crapped the bed, then I would understand why you asked this question ;)
