Sure it is different (having "german umlauts" like ä,ö and ü and the ß), while "y" and "z" are exchanged. You won't find § on a QWERTY keyboard either.

And yes, I think chances are rather slim to get a QWERTY keyboard in Germany - we need our umlauts on a daily base.

You're kidding?

Please. Help me find the correct search phrase.
THIS wouldn't work: Google

This Forum is topranked at google for this topic. But without answers. Speculative answers, guessing and photos from different layouts. But the only thing you can find using google or the search an this forum for a german layout is from Amazon. Not a confirmed, official picture from Nokia.

My question ist: Are there any kind of confirmed, official pictures from Nokia for the different N900 keyboard layouts?

A Nokia Site. Official Dokuments. Development or Product Sheets?
