This is exactly what I was about to say. It looks like they've used the caps lock position for the Fn key on the cr-48, so it looks like this may not be possible on this unit.

Then again, I guess it's not that big a deal since the ctrl key doesn't really get used on the web.



It looks like a 'search' key actually. Look closely at the fourth screenshot. Not sure if I'm right, though.


Photos of this laptop leaked several days ago, with greater detail on the keyboard. It is indeed a search key. The shift key also has a light on it, suggesting that it can be double-tapped to activate caps lock.


I use the ctrl key a lot on ssh sessions. If the web is now reduced to youtube and valleywag, I'd gladly abandon it.


You are thinking of the Internet. The Web is an abbreviation of the "World Wide Web" (of hyperlinks), rather than the medium which conveys its data.


touché. good point.

ok, so i must say web represent a very very very low priority on my internet usage. having only 'the web' would be like cable TV with only the weather channel.

No. Thanks.
