Sorry if this is question has an obvious answer, but: I have a friend considering buying a 900c, but he needs a Dvorak layout keyboard. Is this possible on the 900c and if there is more than one way, which is the best? Thanks!

For a lot of these keyboards the keys can be physically moved without breaking them. Does anyone know if this can be done with the 900c? In any case, if someone has a pointer to (or name of) one of these generic remappers that would be great. I'm sure I can find it on Google but it would be nice to hear from someone who has actually used one of these things and knows one that works well.

i know I use a remapper to remap the arrow keys. if you have a butter knife you can just pop them off and back on with no problem.

oh yes i forgot to say that.. yes it can be done, on one of them the arrow keys are inverted now except the arrow remapper for it isn't perfect.

about generic remappers, depends what you wish, if you just want to change the key defniition and optionally with shift combinations too, even language extender lite will do, if you want to access alt etc combinations too, maybe okey (and it is free).
