my sony picturebook shows this with 
P+{, !+@, #+$, ^+&, (+), P+:, !+Q, #+E, %+R, %+T, &+Y, *+U, *+I,
(+O, a_+P, ++} and that's only testing keys that are next to each other,
when i found that !+A shows this as well, i gave up.

i am thinking it must be all the dirt under the keys, but if so, why
only left-shift and not right?

greetings, martin.
