I've seen the comments about the connector not being included, but mine did have the connector. Regardless, I looked at the keyboard I was replacing and the original connector is easily removed.In case you don't receive a connector on yours, I'm including a link to a picture of me releasing the ribbon cable from the connector on the original keyboard. The keyboard itself is a perfect fit, so you can order with confidence.In four easy steps: [...]1. Using a small flat screwdriver, insert the tip gently into the position shown and twist lightly to release2. Slide the screwdriver down, pushing the retainer clip down as shown3. Repeat for the other side4. Gently pull the cable from the connectorReverse steps for installation of the new keyboard's ribbon cable into the original connector.

I purchased this keyboard replacement from the Brilliant Store in June of 2009. I hardly use it as my laptop is connected to a stand alone keyboard. I had the original laptop keyboard for over 5 years before I ever had a problem with it. In all fairness to the Brilliant Store, they said they would replace it but it means finding another shop to remove the new useless keyboard (and paying again for that service), sending it back to Brilliant Store and then waiting for the new keyboard to comeback. Question is, if a product they sent only lasted 7 months, do I really want to take a chance on another keyboard from that store? Not really faulting the seller (or am I?) Perhaps when buying replacement parts it pays to shell out more $$ to purchase from the manufacturer. I guess bottom line is "you get what you pay for".

My old keyboard quit around toggle. This is a great replacement if you know what you are doing and I do.

Trabaja perfecto hasta el momento no da problemas buen teclado y se los recomiendo q lo compren es demasiado bueno y cambiarlo es super facil

I received one from this vendor, and the ribbon cable didn't terminate with a connector. It was just the bare end of the ribbon cable. Thus, it was useless, as the connectors are a one-shot deal. You can't transfer the connector from the old keyboard ribbon cable--you'll destroy it if you try to pry it off. So, beware. You may be making a round-trip with Amazon customer service.

Item was received on time and properly wrapped. The keyboard was installed with no issues. I'm now able to type again. I would recommend this to everyone.

This unit was brand new, works great, and fit as designed. I have been using it in meetings without any problems. Shipping was very prompt.

It was just what i was looking for and fit my computer perfectly. Was easy to install and would order again
