What's with the P100's keyboard.

"[","]",";" and '" are some of the keys that is 70% of it's size on th p100. The".","/" and right "shift" are maybe half the size. I mean it's hard in enough getting used to not having a delete button where you want it and now this. It's really tough getting used to typing a question mark. Oh well, I'm planning to keep this for a couple of years so I guess it's not all bad. I'll get used to it.

Other than that, this maching is awsome. Great build quality, everything is where you want it to be. I played BF2 with very thing on full with AA *4 and it was a breeze. Excellent graphics. I just don't understand why they had to shrink the jeyboard, I mean it is a 17". I used to have the LG S1 whith a full keyboard including number pad and was fitted perfectly in the laptop.


Anyone want to comment on that or facing the same issue.

 

Well... Its something you have to adapt to.

Its my only major complaint on the p100/105.

 

The keyboard layout could be better. I'm a fast but not a very accurate typer, so the backspace key is my friend . But somehow they placed the smaller backspace key exactly where my pinky always lands when I need it!! The only gripe I have is the ?/ key. They should've shrunk the left shift key instead and made the ?/ key normal size.

What do you guys think of the labels on the front jacks. Am I the only one that thinks they're hard to see?

 

Yeah, Toshiba's keyboards are known for being, well, different When I switched over from my old Satellite to my E1705, I actually had problems adjusting to Dell's standard layout.

 

ya i found it hard to learn on...but after learning i type jus as fast and accurate now. i got the laptop(p100-jr5) last november so almost a year with it already(wholy crap this last year has went by fast) i do still have a problem soetimes with te question mark key though.
