You can buy stickon letters to replace the rub offed ones.

Does it really matter given that you know the key's position? Have some typing practice and the letters won't matter. I don't even look at the keyboard when I type, and I type faster for it. What you can do is find an old keyboard of the same type for free and pop the keys off and put them in your current keyboard. Other than that, keyboards are like $5-10 man. How are you on the internet but can't afford a cheap keyboard?

The rub-on letters will probably cost the same as a new keyboard. If the letters are worn off on any of the keys, the keyboard is well past its reliable service life. Replace it!

An experienced typist doesn't look at the keyboard anyway. I wouldn't worry much about missing letters on keys on my keyboard. You can pop off the key, though, and write on it with a fine tipped permanent marker. Then simply replace the key. I understand the financial issue, but you could also begin saving to purchase a new keyboard. It may not take a super long time to come up with an extra ten bucks.

I bought an awesome keyboard at http://www.newegg.com for just $5. It is silly to even try to replace the rubbed of letters.
But if you MUST, then spend the $5 to get a Sharpie Permanent Marker at your local stationary store.
See? The price is about the same... Fix or buy new.

People love to use their old keyboards as they are use to the size of the lettering and the space between each key.
Putting back the letters will be a bit of a nasty job, but I recomend that you get a new keyboard.
Tis the best advice I can offer...
Ps.
DID YOU KNOW
a commonly used keyboard has more germs on it than a public toilet.. <--- food for though....

It would problly cost you more in time and money to replace the letters, then to replace the keyboard. Plus the fact that you get a brand new keyboard without all the fluff and junk that is stuck underneath and between the keys.

Why must they be 'neatly' replaced?? Just crudely draw them on there and put clear tape over them for now.. Some day you might be able to cough up the $3 to get a good used one at Goodwill.. or just check craigslist.com and you might find a free one!

I'm wondering the same thing- I guess for me, since I have white letters on black keys, I'm just going to redraw them with a whiteout pencil. You know, the kind with a squeeze tube?
