WTD: Amiga 1000 keyboard or parts.

[yorgle]

Hi all.

I'm trying to restore my Amiga 1000, and at some point I lost the 'x' key, and the bit it connects to is broken.

I'm looking for a broken or parts donor keyboard, or perhaps a replacement keyboard in general.  

Anyone know of a source?

Hi,

You might have better luck finding an A2000/3000/4000 keyboard. The connectors are different but they all carry the same signals, so it'd just be a simple job to reconnect the A1000's plug.

Where are you located?

Although the title does not state Amiga 1000, the keyboard simulator does work with amiga 1000 and the cable comes with the connector:

Could not fit "1000" into the title before running out of characters.  So you can use your PC with Amiga 1000 as well.

I also have an Amiga 1000 keyboard, but it uses this very long and spiral phone cable instead of the normal cable it came with.  Send PM to me if you are interested.
