    I acquired a new T61. I noticed that only the different key is the Right Arrow (the most rightest and the downmost key). I is like on old keyboard, a little bit cranky. Only this key is like this. So I don't is that because is the most furthest key or is it on all keyboard of T61. It's strange that lenovo people have made such a mistake on all keyboad, because I heard that the Ibm\lenovo are the best. So if you have T61, please see if this key is cranky and different from other, and post here. Thanks :)

    If you are under warranty, give IBM tech support a call and they will send you a brand new keyboard. Just tell them your problem and they should have no problem sending a replacement(and they ship overnight!). Its just a few screws to put in.

    For the record my right arrow key is not cranky as your describe.

    Mine neither, though my "V" key has that problem.

    My C key was very squeaky, but I fixed it by jiggling it-Pulling it a little bit vertical up seemed to help. Can't hurt if you do it slowly.
