where to buy an azerty keyboard in lebanon

With the release of the new version of fayerfooks and the attending my first open source meeting in lebanon, i was disgusted by the remnants of proprietary technology on my pc, so i smashed my wireless microsoft branded keyboard  (real story: i spilled coffee on it while i was studying for my finals, yeah finals :|)

Anywayz me wants an AZERTY keyboard! i can't find one... please save my life

buy those stickers for keyboards for when the keys fade away, and stick them on a qwerty keyboard in an azerty order and configure the keyboard as azerty...

Compuworld (Sinn el Fil, Freeway center) had what you want a couple of monthes ago. I almost bought one by mistake, and the cashier told me 'thats a French keyboard'.
It was Azerty indeed, so I promptly put this alien thing back on the shelf and got something more civilized. ;)

well i'm using a qwerty keyboard as an azerty one, it's simple to reconfigure one... but i am missing a couple of keys, one for (<,>) signs and one for * sign it's annoying to have to use alt-61(etc) keys to reach those missing symbols :(
i hope that compuworld do still have some

Just out of curiosity, why would you use an azerty keyboard? Why are you used to it? Most probably you type stuff in French :/ right? :)
