NUMLOCK on W/less Entertainment Keyboard 8000 - why?

[Peter]

Has anyone any idea why there is a numlock on Microsoft's new Wireless
Entertainment Keyboard 8000 when there is no numeric keypad?
Microsoft expect one to be psychic to know what's what with there
devices....as usual.

There is a keypad...just not separate, the numbers are listed on keys U, I,
O, P, J, K, L, M etc.
You have to hit the function "Fn" key to make them work.

Thank you Richard...if you hadn't told me that I would never have noticed
those little numbers printed in the corner of those keys...
My eyesight isn't what it used to be!
