    I noticed alot of the sonys have huge keys for the keyboard. specifically the FE880 that i want to buy...the keys are bigger than normal. I tried typing with it and i had to stretch and move my hands alot more to type. Does that bother anyone else? i love the FE880 except for that fact...keyboard is a big part of the laptop since im gonna use it all the time. kind of mad that the laptop is everything i want and need except for the dumb keyboard.

    it really differs, everyone has different hand size. Since a use a similar sized keyboard for my main pc. I kinda got used to it right away on my FZ.

    again not everyone will like it. my sister has relatively small hands but uses a keyboard 1.5x the keyboard i use :X yet she likes it. Keyboard, I think you can adapt to, just make sure everything else about it doesn't have a problem. Otherwise I think its a go.
