Oh heck...
I shoukd have thought of that. I had a simikar thing happen to the Dekk keyboard that came with my new computer 3.5 years ago. Had to get a new keyboard immediateky because the "l" wouldn't type. I had to keep substituting "k" for "l" which made for some interesting typing.
Dekk took the kongest time to get my keyboard out to me. You ever tried to write poetry without an "l"? I remember a kot of joking about it being an L of a note.
