Here is what we have:

1) ANSI keyboard - \| above return
2) ANSI and ISO keyboards - Del key placed next to Alt Gr and <- arrow key. No right Ctrl.

Everyone happy with this?

Seems fair, it's still a 14" compact keyboard. Could it be possible to have "blank" keys with stickers so that we can map them the way we want ? That's way no more hurdle to sell it for everyone's taste.

We're exploring something to this effect. This, however, depends on users being able to use the kb firmware reprogramming utility on their own  - so we're working toward getting that sorted and user-friendly. More info in due time.

I too like that idea. Keep in mind you can re-program keys in X-Windows using "xmodmap".

1)\| above return
2) Right Ctrl stays
3) Fn + Backspace = Del

Thanks for the feedback!

Hooray!  Very apple of you Tongue  This is perfect for me personally, so I'm happy.  I hope it works for everyone else as well.

Thanks for the feedback.

About the keys, what's their physical dimension (ISO or ANSI) ?

Thanks for the update.  I have been waiting for this every sense I heard about it on BSD now a few months back.  I hope you can push it out soon.  But I am glad you are taking the time to perform quality testing.
