Thank you for the pointers! I have Blink installed on my iPad and use it occasionally to restart a system service or similar, but any serious work that requires typing is impossible for me due to the keyboard layout issue. I use the Neo-layout [0] which has both a different layout for the letters, as well as using additional modifier keys, such as Caps Lock, to access extra "layers" which map more symbols. I like it very much, but it's so different from the more standard ones such as QWERTY, that I'm now significantly slower in the latter and loathe using it.

Ahh yeah, I use the Apple keyboard cover and that's a bit cramped even for English. I can't imagine typing in German on it would be fun. Not sure if it covers everything you need, but have you tried using the Alt/Option key for typing certain things? e.g. Alt+u and then o gives ö. Alt+s gives ß.

  QWERTZ Bluetooth keyboards work, so I can type most things I need if I ever need to write German, which is honestly rather rare. But I still need to deal with a significantly different keyboard layout and it's just neither fun nor productive. I'd rather carry an extra device that works the way I want it to rather than deal with either QWERTY or QWERTZ for extended periods of time.
