Hi, Kaitlyn,

    My keyboard has a cable, which is permanently attached. Am I correct in
assuming I should not try the dishwasher, for that reason? This keyboard is
still usable, but it hasn't been the same, since we caught our preschooler
pouring some kind of drink into it. I don't know what I would do, if I
didn't have three older kids, to help keep track of that busy little guy!
LOL!

Paula
