There isnt much you can do when a lot of water gets into the keyboard and beyond. I suggest you phone the number you were given for support network.

Depends on the make and model. My daughter has an HP DV6000 model and was quoted a price of $150 installed.

Here we are talking about replacing a keyboard, and if we all read the post again, OP spilled water on his LAPTOP KEYBOARD, not just a keyboard.

Right, am external keyboard can be gotten for as little as $20. But laptop keyboards are proprietary and can be a lot more expensive.
