Yeah man, getting your phone to do Japanese with e-mail would be really, really awesome. I learnt soo much from just sending quick email all the time while I was there. I was playing with an 'Apache' the other day, it had CE and everything worked nicely, the phone sort of slid apart in half to get to the keyboard and you used it in 'landscape' mode. Data charges are still way too much here for me to do that though. And the Skype idea is good, my old man has a new iPaq, one of those big blue ones, and we got Skype on it over 802.11 and it worked perfectly. I atcually still have my flash Japanese cellphone and still use it sometimes when I'm studying, looking up Kanji compounds that you can't remember all of through the text-input system is pretty awesome. Let me know how you go with that Emulator for Palm man, that sounds interesting. I know a few people who have install J-OS on Palm, this seems much easier than doing it with CE, although thanks for those links man. I have an old Palm Vx with a dead battery that still works in the cradle, I might give J-OS a try and see if it's worthwhile. Speaking of emulators, if you guys are really keen to try out the different software, I'm sure with a little google you can find a Palm and an Win CE emulator and just try them out on your desktop before you buy one.
