4x6 button matrix. How do you read directly?

Other Hardware LEDs and Multiplexing
5

I prefer the second layout ,

but you can rotate the pad 90 degrees getting a 6 x 4 layout

1 2 3 A B C
4 5 6 D E F
7 8 9 x x x
* 0 # x x x

what do you think of that?

One of the six could be a [reset] or a button
