I can work with standard uk english keyboards, because it has the same key layout, just different marking on the keys. As long as you know where which key is it's fine. But the us layout is missing some important keys.
The chance of having many different keyboard options is very very slim. We may get a different layout to the one on the current prototype, or stick to the one pictured, or perhaps have one more in the future ... if the opportunity for a different keyboard layout arises.
If we'll have a choice (again, this isn't a given) I may get a poll up on the forum and see which layout most people prefer.
The simple truth is that retooling the keyboard is very expensive ($~100k) and having multiple SKUs isn't practical or easy. We'll see.
For now, assume that the picture keyboard is the only one that the PB Pro will ship with.
