Ive been tryin to find a direct source for the Touch Pro keyboards that isnt an ebay store. The only place I can seem to find is the ebay store for $39.99 each. ANy ideas where else I could purchase any?

I haven't seen any other sources. I suspect some of the third party sprint authorized repair centers might be able to sell them to you. I think however if they're gonna discontinue the TP that they might become scarce. We'll see what happens over the coming months.

Awesome! just when my keyboard just died for 2nd time I didnt feel like going back to get it fixed (it was free last time i went) Now it'll probably take me 5 min to fix it but i gotta go the store to get the tools anyway.

I tried few tricks like pressing down on spacebar but no success but once it was working for like a min and when i slid open later still no go. :protest:

Well, I actually work at one of those 3rd party authorized repair centers. lol. i have a couple keyboards, just not sure if theyre good or not. sprint isnt replenishing them, at least not yet.

I finally found this post after having my TP for almost a year. (I got on the bandwagon with the rest of the folks whining about keyboard problems) I gave up returning to the Sprint store after my 5th replacement. I finallly decided to open the fon after some helpful tips on some sites. I actualy took a piece of mylar and sandwiched it between the keyboard and fon base which works fine. A occasional push of the spacebar and its back to normal. i will definitely give this one tip a try. THANKS!

Well I have had no issues with my keyboard but I probably just jinx myself. My friend has had 3 replacements in 5 mo. right now he is working on a sceme calling sprint and letting them know about his keyboard not working so they can put notes in his account so when the tp2 comes out he will call them and tell them look at my notes I have been having this prob since..... lol lol

I'm on Telus, and just picked up a TP2 in April, so 3 months in and my keyboard has started getting the symptoms of total failure. It actually failed for the entire day yesterday, but has been working off and on today.

I called Telus, and theres no hope of swapping it in for a TP2... really sucks considering they said they didn't know when the TP2 was going to be coming out...

I am TP #3. First two were new. I got a refurb this time. Keyboard stopped working in less than 24hrs. Pressed on the right corner and it started working again.

Has anyone other than the OP actually tried opening up their TP to see if the keyboard ribbon is simply unplugged?
