    I'm not very familiar with Panasonic notebooks, so any help would be highly appreciative.

    Recently I broke the F10 key from the keyboard of a CF-W8 and was wondering what's the best way to fix it. The spring mechanism doesn't look like a regular one found in Asus or Dell laptops (which I'm more familiar with) so I'm thinking if replacing the entire keyboard would be the better option and if so, where would be the best place to purchase one.

    TIA.

    The best place would be fleabay but did not find any. I checked a few other spots but no luck. The only other place would be www.heartlandsi.com , you will need the part number for the keyboard but I will warn you that shipping starts at $25.00 and up :eek:
