Instead of page up and page down buttons I would like to home home and end buttons, or is it just me ? I've never in my life used page up/down but when working, home and end is paramount.

I really don't understand the need for smaller desktop keyboards. Is the need for them purely cosmetic, or do they offer any advantage compared to normal keyboards?

At least Home and End are assigned to Fn combinations. May not be ideal but still there.

Having crasis and tilde on Fn+Esc though, that's a nightmare for whatever language which frequently uses them.

It makes for more room on the desk for peeps who don't need the number pad.
