    I was just wondering if there is an alternative to the standard keyboard that comes with this notebook. I dont mind it that much but I would like to get a nicer one. Thanks

    I think you are stuck with it unless you want an external one.

    you can replace the original with the same one but new (that is without the glossy finish of the keys :))

    If I remember well, I think you can use the black keyboard from dv4000/dv1000. I didn't try it, but last time I had both models, they were very similar
