The report of the event in Spain is now available. Read it here:
That's what I call a QL meeting, a real QL bash!
I celebrated the Launch Day in typical Swiss style, with a hike and a Cheese Raclette in amazing scenery. See:

Stay tuned for photos later
We really had a great time. You had fun too. The landscape in the video is beautiful. I imagine it won't be cold.

A little disappointed that the pic is not a Spanish QL keyboard.
That was on purpose. Spanish keyboard was introduced in 1985. So it's not 40 yet....
Excellent, I didn't know that!

Good to learn that all of the 'foreign' QLs would have been delivered with the Psion v2 versions and also interesting that there were 12 alternate ROM/keyboard layouts planned - I wonder how many of those made it into production, or rather, which ones didn't, as I don't think there are 12 known.... (in no particular order)
1. Spanish, 2. German, 3. USA (that probably counts due to ROM/Psion software difference, even though the k/b is the same), 4. French, 5. Italian, 6. Greek, 7. Finnish, 8. Swedish, 9. Danish.

We have published three videos about the event, and two of them have also been published in our blog with a review by Miguel Ángel Rojo.
Although the articles with the videos are in Spanish, I publish here the links so that they can be read using the automatic translator, if you wish.
