The 500 and the 2000 have a few extra keys in the numeric keypad. The way
to include them in the keymap seems not to be easily available. (May be
they are in the 500/2000 tech. manual, but I don't have that.) The above
must be related to this. 
I got interested in this because I want the usa0 keymap but with the extra
keys recognised (for mg). I would like anyhelp you can give.
