    Can anyone with the UK M17 with non-illuminated keyboard possibly provide a picture of the keyboard?

    Cheers in advance :)

    you can also use the OCZ whitebook keyboard. the illuminated one. the layout is the same. I've an OCZ whitebook and a M17 both with a Portuguese illuminated keyboard. AW only provides 3 types of keyboard layout. french azerty, UK and the standard one

    It is not a regular UK layout (unfortunately), but a US layout with a couple of the keys changed... I am getting used to it, but it is annoying...

    And the German one. But no French Swiss which by the way would be very popular I think as they have a fair share of customers there who have requested it.

    Non-illuminated as well? If The m9750 keyboard works on it I might try and get one of those out of AW :p

    Yes my mistake I was confused sorry AW only have those.
    But there's also a OCZ whitebook German and French keyboard version. Actually that I known of Flextronics makes: US, UK, English, French, German, Italian, Swedish/Finnish, Spanish, Portuguese. It's likely that they made even more but these ones I known for certain they make.

    Fair point, I was talking about the illuminated one I have, although I would expect they are the same. If not, I may swap mine for a non-illuminated one...

    layout is the same, it's just only a cable for the illumination which makes the difference
