Mine was rejected too (Visa), the only way was to use a third party account with an aggregating card that I can use to pay from multiple bank accounts (Mastercard). I have not tried with a "normal" Mastercard, didn't have mine with me, but I doubt the issue is specific to any type anyway. The issue was with the actual date of payment, probably because we don't pay today but just commit to allow the future payment.

Thanks! Can't believe I missed that post.
Paid mine now, will just have to make it work.

I've also paid. No problems here.

Few days I also asked Fxtec customer support about the scandic layout, and got this answer:
As most of us Scandinavian fanatics are willing to get their Pro1's as soon as possible and thus will accept QWERTY or QWERTZ if Scandinavian is not available, I'm afraid that there will not be enough demand for Scandic layout in the future either. I just did pay my QWERTZ Pro1, so I don't really think I'd buy a second unit even if they decided to provide scandic layout. And I think this will be the situation with most of us.

PS. As I mostly type in Finnish, I don't see much point on having physical keyboard just for occasional English typing

can't you guys just write without those special characters? I mean the right way here is "čevapćići" but even with all the "c"s it would do just fine

They added a lot of FAQs to the preorder screen and updated some of the existing ones too.
2 year warranty is crazy. I'm super pumped about that

In Finland we have just ä, ö and å. While it is understandable for the reader if you use just a and o instead, it is far from being same. And it looks just like what it is: writing Finnish with American keyboard. As said, it is easily understandable, but still it isn't something I'd like to pay 650€ for. For me, the whole point on having physical keyboard is that I don't have to use on-screen keyboard. So the keyboard should provide everything I need and if it doesn't, there's no much point of having it at all.

Just for curiosity, In Finland we have a nice word "älämölö", pronounced as [ælæmœlœ] and it means the noise made by a bunch of people talking out loud. If you write it without scandic letters, it looks like "alamolo" and the meaning is something like "dick down there"

In Norwegian the Æ, Ø and Å are used in a lot of words, you could write AE, OE and AA in emergencies, I sometimes do that when I'm out of the country and unable to change the keyboard layout, but it's a pain to type and annoying to read.

The letter Å is a very common letter(my mother's name even starts with it). On it's own Å means "to", like "to do". Obviously it's used a lot, and two A's can never replace it, even though a Norwegian would understand what you mean(they would also understand you don't have access to a scandic keyboard and assume you are abroad.

Changed my order to QWERTZ, those extra letters will work as ÆØÅ for me, and I'll just type Y with the Z. I'm the only user anyway so it will probably be alright.
