    ÆØÅ on a MS Surface "keyboard"

    I'm looking to buy a Microsoft Surface RT - I only have one problem, however: they don't sell them in Denmark! I'm able to have one shipped from Germany, but that would mean it wouldn't have a Danish keyboard (/touch cover), including the letters Æ, Ø and Å.

    Is there any way I could configure the keyboard to allow me to have these buttons? Shortcuts, etc, something? I know that germans have ö and ä (= Ø and Æ), so I guess mapping those differently shouldn't be much of a challenge (?). But how about the Å?

    How would I go about doing this?

    Thx in advance.

    We also have an ü so there is another you might replace

    i'd expect to be a regular keyboard -different software layouts still work, they just arent written on the cover itself.

    As long as it's a "non-standard" keyboard the keys will behave as normal with the keyboard. It won't work well if it's a "legit English" keyboard, as I'm sure you'll notice.

    A english keyboard can have it's keys changed to ÅÆØ, all you have to do is go into the language settings & set the keyboard language to Danish. (That way the ¨'/ keys will be changed to ÅÆØ)

    Means I'm screwed until these things come to Denmark then (provided they will at all)?
