Hi Warren,
I have now received a sample of two new keyboard membranes from the
supplier which appear to address the issues - they have done a slight
re-design and gone for a thinner membrane (more like the original),
which has cured the problem on my own Sam Coupé
I will send you a
Hi!
Thanks very much for the effort to get all that sorted. It's much
appreciated, and great that you've gone to the effort of trying to
find the problem and fix it. :-) I'll look forward to it (no rush),
and fingers crossed! ;-)

Hi,
I'm sorry to hear that you have some problems with them.
I've held back on getting two, hoping to hear how good they are.
I'm keep on using Colin's PC Keyboard interface

It looks like I might be getting another PC interface for my second SAM.
