Maybe the problem is overstated here but I don't think I've read about as many people having keyboard problems with the other HP calcs built recently. Or am I mistaken? I can say I've had two in a row now with keyboards not as well engineered as HP claims.

And how do you come to the conclusion "so many?"
Do you know that? Or are the problem machines over-represented here?
Problems like this are *always* over-represented. It's just a fact that dedicated people on forums like this like to have a whinge when something goes wrong. So the duds get amplified and you won't hear from the vast majority who have had no trouble.
I greatly doubt HP tests every calculator for key actuation force, so it's inevitable that you'll get a small percentage of less than optimum tactile domes from the manufacturer.
