    Hi Colin – we’ve agree a mistake was made here. We’re already contacting customers to replace their keyboards. A limited number of customers were affecred. My college Bill wrote a blog post about what we are doing – http://direct2dell.com/smallbusiness/archive/2008/05/08/europe-vostro-keyboard-issue-what-we-re-doing.aspx
    Best regards,
