    There is not remapping software, yet anyway. You'll want to take note of what the original keyboard F keys do as thats what function you'll get when you press it.

    Well, there is, but not proprietary anyway. I haven't used any of these myself, either, so I can't vouch for them.

    Remap Keyboard Keys with These 3 Free Apps [Windows]

    I'm not sure if you can change hotkey combinations with any of those programs, or if you can only change single-key functions. But you can give them a shot and I would love some feedback on them. :)

    Yeah, I think you would need a proper firmware update to rewrite the function associations.

    I think Meaker is right - you would need firmware or at least, proprietary software to actually remap the hotkey associations. To be honest, I think the programs I linked to are somewhat redundant. :eek:
