    Thinking of getting one from the states sent here because it's a lot more cheaper. But I want to have a proper UK keyboard on it ._.

    Anyone know if it's replaceable? I tried checking Google, but couldn't find any info on it.

    The training video of the U400 at Lenovo Service and Support Training should give you some idea of what the U300s is going to be like. They don't have the U300s online yet, probably because it really hasn't started selling here yet (only limited quantities).

    Thanks. Had a quick look on the u400 page, but didn't see any mention of removing/replacing the keyboard.

    I don't see it addressed in the full tear down video. That can't be good.

    I'd love a U300s... But only if it had a 1600x900 screen, backlit keyboard and expandable beyond 4GB. WHY!!!!?
