WTB: Virgin keyboard(s)
Fried your WebPlayer? Looking to parts out the corpse?

I have a broken right mouse button switch in my keyboard. Looks like a spring broke.
It was useable with Virgin, but bad news with Windoze.
I figure someone out there must have a dead WP with a live KB going to waste.
Or possibly a dead KB with unbroken and salvageable mouse switches.

Make me an offer, eh?

I dont know how helpful this is to you, but the wireless keyboard from the websurfers work with my WP, they seem to have a better range as well (unfortunatley they have a little thumb pad instead of the track ball).

I bought mine of "some famous internet auction site??" and the left mouse button was dead. Just pop off the old black and white switch thing inside the keyboard and find another pressure button or switch to use. I found that an old button thing from inside a worthless joystick works. Look in you car or closest for something that has a button connection a circuit.
The top and bottom pin holes seem to be to the same metal trace thing on the circuit board so you only really need to connect the top (or bottom) to the middle with some sort of clicking switch. Good luck.
