Has anyone else taken a close look at the keyboard that comes with set 6458
(The Spaceport Satellite) What happened to W T D L and V?  Does the minifig
language not use these letters?  Was this a foul up by Space Port
contractors who were too busy charging $10,000 dollars for a hammer to
notice a few missing letters?  was it a conscious decision by space port
administrators to save money (because the contractors were charging "by the
key").  What's going on here?

Cheers
