Hi Christoph,

reading hispeed dot ch as part of your email address, I assume you 
reside in Switzerland have a SwissGerman version of the Powerbook? If 
so, Shift-2 will certainly only work if you load the US-keyboard 
mapping - which isn't really what you want ;)

Search the list, there has been a thread about exactly this topic a few 
days ago, named "special caracters on german keyboard"

Greetings,
Alex
