A600 KB vs A1200 KB
Is the A600 KB identical to the A1200 one just without the Numerics?
What I mean is, can you plug an A1200 KB into the ribbon socket thingy and get Numeric KB to work on an A600 (not worrying about physical fit etc at this stage). Anyone know if the ribbons carrry identical signals etc? |

@meth,
I believe they are m8y, best way to check is to plug a 1200 in the a600, its just a matrix so i doubt it would do anything bad, other than a lot of garbled text at worse. |

At least the keyboard controller is a separate part A1200<>A600.
Looks like the keyboard ribbons have the same amount of pins, but I didn't bother to count, to be honest. |
