    My girlfriend's 1520 got here on the 29th of August. A day or two ago the H key just stopped working. You can get a "GH" to come out of you hold H and G at the same time, but you can never get an H by just hitting H.

    I guess I'll have to return this one :mad: for a stupid broken key! I hope she doesn't have to wait long for a replacement. I tried calling dell at work today but they need the damn service tag to do anything (even though I told them this isnt a software/driver issue). Oh well, I will try them when i get home.

    new keyboard.
    if everything else is nice on that 1520 (great screen, no headphone noise, blah blah blah)...get the keyboard replaced, because who knows if the replacement has problems...

    (i'm really paranoid of dell now)
