    Im search JP Japanese (Japanese Layout) Keyboard for Acer Aspire 8930/8920/6530.

    New and Used are OK.

    Even if you do not have it, I just know where I can buy.

    The ACER-Support does not help me because the notebook was out of warranty. :mad:

    I am very disappointed by this ACER.

    However, I am happy with my ACER notebook, it was perfect for my work, but I need to replace the keyboard.

    Anything else was not good for me, how to use the US Keyboard, or use an External Japanese Keyboard.

    I do not understand why Japan should be always so closed. :(

    I hope someone can help me, I can pay well, but not too exaggerated of course. :p

    Hello everyone :)

    Hm.

    Were these laptops targeted to the japanese market at all?
    Perhaps there is some japan based authorised parts supplier whom you could contact...

    No, JAPAN unfortunately is a very closed market, do not sell parts for repairs in Japan so if you're out of warranty you have to buy a new product, the Japanese person is acting this way.
    The only way is found elsewhere, outside of Japan, but I tried a lot on the internet and found nothing, two belonging to Chinese vendors but from which I have not had any response to my request.
    At the end I think I'll have to buy a new notebook instead of a keyboard a little money, as they just want people to do, but this is really unfair ..

    Yes, the Acer Asire 8930 id disponibile to japanese Market with Japanese layout keyboard.

    no solution for me?..

    If even ebay sellers are not useful. :confused:

    You may contact the people from mk-electronic.de - they are official spare parts supplier in Germany here. Perhaps they can help you in some way.
