Post: Kobo/Rakuten finally releasing e-reader in japan

Finally! Now, for the rest of us, does this mean Kobo Touch purchased in other countries will get improved Japanese support too? I would really like to have good J-E/E-J dictionaries, drawn kanji/kana...

Hi folks, is anyone using any of the CJKI dictionaries (Jack Halpern's stuff)? I'm a student with no electronic dictionary (aside from browser-based ones on my PC). I've been hoping for an Android-bas...

Post: software to evaluate writing (stroke order etc.)

I know I'm not awesome, but hey, I averaged ~75 per day for a month (finishing RtK1) and it just about killed me. I had the time to work on it full time (except for meals and sleep), and only took par...

Post: The "I just finished RTK1, please congratulate me"...

Whew, what a relief. I just finished, after a very hard 4 weeks of work. I couldn't have done it without all your shared stories! Thank you. I can't wait to recline in a hot tub, and let all the kanj...

Post: software to evaluate writing (stroke order etc.)

I watched a couple of the videos on Bimoji Training and I have to agree, it is more sophisticated than LexiKAN. I don't think I'm ready for that yet, though, as I'm still plowing through RtK vol 1, an...
