Well, it works. Wallet is a bit heavier than normal, had stocked too much 
eurocoins two weeks ago. Euro notes came out the ATM a few minutes after 
midnight. Everyone accepted Euros today.

To make it a bit more on-topic: I can't find the euro-symbol in 
the standard keymap under BeOS. It it printed on my vaio 600LEK (UK) 
keyboard, next to the 4.
Doesn't really matter, I type EUR instead.
I prefer to have an american keyboard, even if the symbols are not
printed right on the keys. I prefer the # above the 3 rather, the ~ 
shift-left of the number '1', \ close to the enter key, etc.
No idea where the british pound symbol can be found. Maybe it will last
only a few years on from now ;-)
