  • They key "O" doesn?t work !!!Who can help me? I?m using the emulator 1.1 on my Jornada 680. It works correctly but there is one problem. The key "O" does not work.

    If you don't have enough keys I fail to see how any solution can be made to that particular problem.
    As to the O key not working I think you should take that up with whoever wrote it.
