buying replacement keyboard keys (g4 powerbook)

    I've had a look back through old threads and I couldn't find anything,

    I have a 17" powerbook G4, recently the shift key fell off,I put it back on but unfortunately I was a bit heavy handed and now it is completely broken,
    so it is constantly falling off and is very annoying.

    I was wondering is there anywhere I could buy just one key? (wishful thinking!)
    or a whole set if that's the only way to do it.

    I've had a look on ebay there doesn't seem to be anything for a g4 powerbook (are a 17" macbook keyboards the same as the powerbook?)

    Do places that do repairs sell them? tried calling mactivate, it just rings out,
    Any advice much appreciated.

    You'll probably have to buy the whole keyboard. The 17" Powerbook is a very nice machine and worth looking after imo. I bought one recently and love the thing.

    This site stock keyboards for our beloved Powerbooks etc.

    Good luck !!

    Thanks for that,
    I'll look into it, I also need a new battery anyway, only just bought a new charger.
    Everything seems to be going all at the same time, typical.
    I just hope more parts don't die on me.
