    Hi guys,

    I recently managed to buy a new P310 from Canada from eBay (only £520!!!!)

    P8400 Processor
    9300M 256mb
    4gb ddr3 ram
    Windows Vista® Home Premium 64-bit (Canadian Bilingual)

    I know it's not the 9600M model but I'm not a hardcore gamer and the price was really attractive! (Right?)

    Anyway it'll be coming with a Canadian keyboard and a North American plug socket so does anyone know if and where I can get a UK or international Eng keyboard (is it easy to replace?) and also a 3 pin UK plug for it?

    Thanks in advance!

    you should be able to buy a 3 pin in the UK you are living there now right?

    the keyboard is usually pretty easy to replace you should check the booklet/instruction manual it may show you how to do it, good luck!

    For the Plug, its available on any Electrical supplies shop or a Giant Hypermarkets, for the Keyboard its very easy ! You have to order one from any LG service center (I dont know if it exists in the UK) and the replacement is very easy ! there is 2 screws on the back of the laptop with a sign of Keyboard, just open them and then you will be able to take off the keyboard easily but be aware that you will find a Data ribbon below the Keyboard and you have to disconnect it too ! if you are not aware of such things I recommend you to send it to the nearest LG service center and let them do it for you !
