Michael is aware of customer interest and is exploring possibilities that are easily installed (without technician-level skills), reliable and economical, and will announce something when it's ready.

There is no need to lobby, individually or en masse; if/when a general solution is available, it will be announced on the SM Forum, so please give it a little time.

Thanks Bob, just the information I needed. The key response on my Beta DM-41X is perfectly usable for me, however the DM-42 keys are uncomfortably firm for any extended use.

A fun feature for the keyboard upgrade, if it happens, would be to place a small "F" or "FC" somewhere on the new part to designate it as a "Frankencalc".
