    I am thinking of purchasing the 627 but i'm not sure if I should get the 217CA or the 218US... I have no problem getting both...

    So I was wondering if anyone has a picture of the 627 bilingual keyboard. I'm curious to see what it looks like. I heard some of the bilingual keyboardds are ugly and very colorful so was wondering if that is the same for the 627.

    Thanks for your help.

    But like I said I have no problem getting the 218US since I have family in the US

    I know... but what I was wondering how the bilingual keyboard on the 217CA version looks like so I could decide between the 217CA and 218US

    Hmm ok then... That helps a little...
    so does that mean that the bilingual one will be more cramped than standard?
