That's true, but at the cost of manufacturing multiple versions of the device with all the wonderfully varied keyboard layouts that people from all around the world expect.

Which is probably a major reason why hardware keyboards went on the wayside in the first place, to remove the pain of having to manage all that region specific stock!
