Does anyone know if the 'exact match' variable in Google is case sensitive ? For example, if I use [keyword] and if someone is looking for [Keyword] will it not appear ?
Thanks,

It is case sensitive actually, in the sense that if you have the following keywords:-
[Keyword Mobile Phones]
[keyword mobile phones]
It will log data for each... However, if you only include one of those keywords, it will still also track the other as well.
I sometimes include capitalised keywords as I feel it is a good way of determining 'real traffic' as keywords that contain a capitalised letter at the start of each keyword is likely to be just copied and pasted (comparing prices, maybe...)

Sorry have to agree with massey
If you do a refresh you will see it changes
Clear you cache and do the search twice and you will see the results change.

My apologies, it appears I was actually answering a different question.
My answer was in relation to tracking case sensitive impressions in the Adwords interface and not whether the ad appears on a Google search.
You are right, as I state in my reply ads will appear whether you use all uppercase, lowercase, a variety etc but you can still include a variety of the same keyword using different cases in your PPC campaign which will log the impressions/click thru's in your Adwords account respectively of the term entered.
