I am planning to buy a 15" AlBook when I setup our new office in Dubai. I am told that the 15" AlBooks sold in the region have an English/Arabic keyboard built in. Has anyone seen this?

Does the backlight show though both the English and Arabic characters?

Any photos?

Thanks,

Trygve

I just came back from Syria last week - all the mobile phones there have additional Arabic letters. They are located right above the "normal" ones.
Get`s a bit crowded - but that`s the way it is.
I imagine the same would apply to keyboards.
