Millions (if counting the Norwegian speaking comunity in USA) of users not
living in Norway have english keyboards.
It is not a good solution to have to change the way the keyboard works just to
be able to write norwegian better.

The easiest improvement would be to make it possible to input the following
command in Autocorrect: replace any combination of aa with å.
Same goes for oe and ae.
Right now, as far as I know, it is not possible to do "any combination" (*aa*)
in Autocorrect.

Secondly it is dissapointing to see that the norwegian spell check does not take
this into account. If you write aa it does not have å as the fist suggestion to
replace.
