Amazon sells nifty overlays that keep dust, dirt, hair, crumbs, etc. out of your keyboard. They also sell stickers that you can attach to your keys to help you type in foreign (esp. non-Latin) alphabets.

Has anyone found a protective overlay that incorporates non-Latin character sets?

Not yet.... I've been looking for such an overlay that would allow Asian languages (Japan, Korea, China). Like you I've been able to purchase key stickers locally (Dallas) but that's really not an elegant solution although it works.

I'm thinking that an overlay might be too cumbersome to use on the smaller keyboard of say, a MacBook or MacBook Pro. Possibly be OK on the full size aluminum Apple keyboard or even the wireless model without the numbers pad.

Regards.
