I just received my lovely Apple Wireless Keyboard from Amazon.co.uk.

But, annoyingly, the @ and " symbols are positioned the American way (UK keyboards usually have the " symbol under Shift+2 and the @ under the ' key).

And yet, it has a £ sign where it's meant to be.

I don't really get it.... has anyone else had this issue? I need to know if I should complain to Amazon.

Apple keyboards and windows keyboards have the @ and I think the " in different places......as it has the £ sign it sounds plenty British.......you get used to the different layouts after a while.

It's the Apple layout for the British keyboard, both my wireless keyboard and my MacBook Air keyboard have the same layout.
