Postby lazysunday » December 29th, 2007 5:13 am

is there some kind of virtual keypad I can use to type kana or do I need to get a 2nd keyboard?

You don't need any extra hardware to type Japanese.

Check the FAQ about using a Japanese IME, it's extremely helpful and only took me a few minutes to figure it all out. 見る!

I was thinking that was just another IME. I just messed around, and added Spanish(Mexico) to the installed languages, and the Ñ/ñ replaces the English(US) :/; when ES is selected.

I initially overlooked the comments for the upside down ! and ?, and have already removed the Spanish IME, but I think those were on - and =

Thank you for your help so it's the same way like in the other languages, I'm going to add Spanish Mexico now! 8)
