    My wife had had her Samsung Q210 laptop for a couple of months when our toddler deftly removed most of the keys on the keyboard. I managed to get most of them back on and working, but the few casualties mean the keyboard still needs replacing. I found this link offering the keyboard part:
    http://www.laptopbits.co.uk/Database_files/Samsung_Keyboards.htm
    but was wondering if anyone has used this source and knows if they're reliable.

    I also wondered whether it would work to use a keyboard from one of the other 12" Samsung laptops, since there were a lot of other, cheaper possibilities online than this lone spare Q210 one I could find. If anyone has pointers for installing the keyboard, too, it would be well appreciated. Thanks.
