I love this computer except for the one thin that will never allow me to ever ever ever buy a Lenovo.
Why in bloody hell do they put the mother!@#$ing FN key where the CTRL key is on every other keyboard in the world. I am CONSTANTLY using CTRL+C and V and that FN key ruins my life. When my job got me a Lenovo, the first thing I did was to rip it off the keyboard. Do they really expect me to buy a $2,000 laptop and rip the key off it?
I can't agree more with you about the Fn key in place of the Ctrl key. It drives me nuts too. But there's an easy fix: you can just software (I use KeyTweak) to reconfigure the Fn key to act as the Ctrl key and vice versa. Sure, the keys will be labelled wrong, but if you're as much of a keyboard user as you are, I doubt that'll throw you off.
i have a lenovo, and i was going to say the same exact thing about the ctrl and fn keys. i'm completely baffled as to why they'd layout the keyboard this way. i'll have to try that program.
Remap the keys as mentioned above. Then on most units, you can swap the CTRL and FN keys -- pop them off, look as the way they are designed, and then you can easily snap them back on.
The phone has 256MB of RAM and a 1GHz processor, which do the job reasonably well, though the Anna interface will likely leave something to be desired for many smartphone users.

configure your function key and use the Fn+c, Fn+p

Eh, I've been using thinkpads for a while now, I've gotten used to that.
