    Hi,

    I have bought a new Inspiron 15R (N5010) and we liked it. Now I am looking for "Keyboard Protector/sin/cover".

    I have found some good ones in ebay, but they ship from china/hongkong.

    Is there any online retailer in USA(I doubt) or ebay seller ships from usa.

    If anyone knows,can you please post the details.

    Is the sony vaio EB series keyboard skins compatible?

    Too new, you'd have to wait until a manufacturer here decides to make some or gets a bulk shipped here from China and then sells them at a much higher profit. I would recommend the Hong Kong sellers, I've done business with them and they have sent me a LCD Screen Protector for my 1520 and a silicone keyboard cover. It takes a bit of a while to get here but, I was able to get my LCD Protector in less than 2 weeks, which I think might be a record in some cases.

    Thanks,

    I am ready to buy one from hongkong/china (I have done earlier), but I was just checking if there is better options.

    Just now, I was able to find this on E-Bay, it's not from Hong Kong but it's just as reliable though. It's from Germany actually and the shipping won't be as scrutinized as it is from Asia. Here's the screen protector link: 15R Screen Protector

    Also you might be interested in Vinyl Covers for your Laptop: Vinyl Cover. That's just one but they have some really good alternative colors/products for 15R.

    And if I had to chose over a keyboard cover, I would pick this one.
