Hey all. I am getting a unibody 15 inch MBP soon and I was wondering if there is somewhere I can buy white chiclet keys to replace the black ones that come standard. I just want to do this to make mine aesthetically unique.
 
Well, I don't know if this is actually true, but when I went from my MacBook Black to the uMBP, I noticed the keys on my Pro are a tiny bit smaller...

Don't know if this is true, but if you're gonna replace them with White MacBook keys, make sure they're identical in size.
 
you wont be able to find backlight capable keys, so other than being unique, it'll be somewhat pointless
 
Well the keys from the Apple desktop keyboards look the same. The bad thing however is you will loose the backlighting on the letters. Not to mention a PITA to remove all those keys.
