just a question,if you have the keyboard wouldnt you know if it has or not?(arnt they with a short left shift and smaller enter key if it uses the blanks)
i just thought i would also mention ive been testing a membrane for the 500 and the 500+ mitsumi keyboards were it wont matter as this new one fits both keyboards,his on amibay. i can find the thread if you want,i think there £20. Last edited by roy bates; 20 September 2013 at 00:08. |

I don't have anything to compare my keyboard with so I'm lost.
My keyboard has a small RETURN I guess. Here is a picture. |

That keyboard has the same Return key as an English A500+ keyboard with a blank key to the lower left of the Return key.
The English A500 keyboard has a large backward L-shaped Return key which takes up the same space as those two keys. So my guess is that you need an A500+ keyboard membrane. |

Yes, by then it certainly would have made sense for them to use the A500+ keyboard too. However, all my A500s have the earlier type keyboard with the bigger return key (and bigger left shift key).

When you are on the subject of danish keyboards, do anyone have a good explanation why the danish keymap has æø and norwegian øæ? What posessed either one to put those two scandinavian letters in opposite places?
it is one of the things people don't care about that puzzles me. ![]() |

I can only say that it seems logic that on danish layout it's like this.
Å ÆØ Coz that's the alphabetic order ![]() Volt. |
