    Ok im in hong kong and bought my 8204 here, i think its got a US keyboard where the @ is above '2' and the # is above '3' where normally on my UK keyboard (well on my vaio anyway) is just to the left of the ENTER button (the uk keyboard normally has " speech marks and the pounds sign above the 2 and 3 repectively.

    Now with the acer i also have two $ symbols one where it shud be above '4' and one just above the right cursor key, above the left cursor key is the € symbol. Ive set the keyboard to US style so wheres my pounds sign!!! its a bit of a ***** since i actually reside in the UK normally! Hope that makes sense, please help!
