This brings to mind the dilbert cartoon where dogbert is giving out his pager number with a tilde in it - so that noone can call him. Although this change is not with the same intent, I can still almost hear customers saying "how do I type that little n with a squiggley line over it?". Effectively, this would be equivalent in effect. Or even more fun, trying to convince users that a little n with a squiggley line over it ISN'T the same as just a plain old n. - Forrest W.
