    Just wondering if it's possible to re-assign the BT & InstantON button/switches on my A8Jm, because as of right now, those 2 buttons do absolutely nothing and is just wasting space.

    Anybody know how to do that or if it's even possible?

    Thanks

    I would also like to find out if this is possible.

    Specifically I would like to make the 2 un-used buttons (BT and instantON) control my volume up and down.
    My last laptop had dedicated buttons for volume and I really miss them. :(

    Nah, I didn't bother to do it... just hoping someday I can get my internal BT installed and ASUS fixes the **** InstantON feature instead of trying to blame documentation on this bug :)
