    Paul:
    Try using a heat gun first to heat the keytop thereby warming and 
loosening the adhesive.  If this isn't effective, a hot iron with a wet 
washcloth sandwiched between the iron the the keys.  Both methods are best 
done with a helper so keys can be kept warm with no time  lost between 
heating and prying the old top off.  Carefully done, no damage will be done 
to the keys.
