After I got Easy Peasy running, I ordered a replacement keyboard on eBay.
The keyboard that came with it was warped and bulging a little in spots, so I wanted to install a fresh one.
I found some instructions online that described the steps involved, but this YouTube video was very helpful.
You can use a spudger or a small standard screwdriver to make the switch. The key to getting the top part of the keyboard out is to push the small connectors at the top back a little, allowing the keyboard to pop out. I mangled one of the keys on the old keyboard trying to find the right angle. No permanent damage.
The keyboard I bought was for a 1001HA, but it worked perfectly in the 1001PXD. In fact, the colorized icons look even better than the original. The netbook is working liking a dream.
