keyboard difference 700m and 600m?

Question

Hello,

I just got the Inspiron 700m and I'm just wondering if the keyboard on the 600m is any bigger or are they about the same size. I know the chassis width is only .7" difference but I'm not sure if that makes the keyboard .7" wider as well. Same with the chassis depth; the depth difference is 1.6" but I'm not sure if that makes the 600m keyboard that much bigger or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated on clearing this up!

Thank you!

The keyboard on the 700m is 90% the size of a full-size keyboard.  The 600m has a 100% full-size keyboard.

I have a 600m and my girlfriend has a 700m. Her keyboard is noticably smaller than mine, ESPECIALLY the comma, period and slash keys which are each about half the width of a normal key and, for me, VERY easy to strike the wrong key.   I'm sure one could get used to the difference but while I was setting up her computer for her I found the 700m's keyboard to be very frustrating and distracting. It made me that much happier that I went with the 600m for myself.
