Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

I wonder if the Fn key would work.

It wouldn't on my keyboard, because I don't think that key sends any data to the PC; it's talking to the keyboard's microcontroller.

Probably not.... but it's possible... I wonder if my GameCube Sharkboard with Fn1 Fn2 and Fn3 (shutdown the computer) would work...
