The buttons you are referring to are the "quick launch" buttons.  The icons on the button denote the use.  They include (from top to bottom)

  • WiFi on/off
  • Bluetooth on/off
  • Web Browser launch (programmable)
  • Email client launch (programmable)
  • User programmable.

They are for typing numbers. When you press the Num Lock button, it locks your numbers. Therefore, you won't be able to use your numbers. So, if you can't type the numbers through using the buttons on the right side of the keyboard, try pressing the Num Lock button and you will be able to use the tabs for typing number.
