The keyboard layout is amazing, having function keys on both sides removes my biggest concerns about the size of the device. Even if I cannot comfortably reach over the whole keyboard, there remains no combo for which I have to do it. Awesome!

Only the funny Caps key, I always end up remapping or disabling it on every PC I use.

Chen, the C and V keys are still inverted in the picture shown in the last newsletter. This is something I had mentioned some months ago when you showed me a couple early pictures on Telegram. I thought it was corrected but with this newsletter, I prefer to ask again, better safe than sorry. Can you confirm it will be fixed in the final design?

Thanks for the newsletter. I was actually checking my emails today because I felt like Christmas eve was a very timely moment to send some news about our very anticipated device. Glad you thought so too.

Thank you! I have already sent the message out to correct this mis-placement. It's just error on the picture.

And Merry Christmas to everyone!!

Good news, thanks!

Is there any reason why the comma "," is present on two keys, close to each other? I reckon it's just an error on the picture too but I am wondering what will be the actual symbol.

It would be great to have dead keys for accents, for those writing in non-English languages with QWERTY keyboards. For instance, there is a key for ` on the left, but none for ´, or ¨, or ^.

I use Qwerty on all my computers and therefore use US-International and dead keys to type accented characters when writing in my language, and I believe I won't be able to do so here because the US-International layout does not exist for this custom keyboard design, yet I don't really want to learn something else than Qwerty. I understand that my situation might be a corner case, but those ` ´ ^ ¨ can be useful in several European languages. If they can be configured by the user, even if not visible on the keyboard, this would be enough, but I'm not sure whether mobile OSes support dead keys.

The second comma that you see, is actually a '
They probably used a wrong symbol over there as well.
All the symbols ` ' " ^ are there on the keyboard, so you can use them for the dead keys. Android and Maemo5 does support dead keys, don't know about the others though.
