Sorry for posting this twice.  I messed up the distribution the 
first  time.  :-(

I whole heartedly agree.  I just recently bought a Mac and loved
Multifinder etc.  I am here in Japan, so I have tried running
KanziTalk.  All of a sudden I find that after just learning all the
"features" of 6.0, I have to go to an antiquated version to use
Japanese. (Although from what I've been reading about 6.0 recently,
maybe I'll be glad of this soon :-) I was shocked when I asked friends
here and found out about the poor cooperation between Apple USA and
Apple Japan.

I have been told that Apple Japan will not sell Kanzi Roms for
machines brought to Japan, even if brought by real live Americans like
me.  (As opposed to many Japanese who quite reasonably, in my opinion,
travel to the US and buy Macs there substantially cheaper than they
can buy them here. I guess Apple Japan frowns upon this.  But these
differences in prices between the US and Japan are a whole different
discussion better off in a different group.)  Does anyone know if it
is possible to get KanziTalk/Kanzi roms in the US?  

The first comment that comes to mind is "Apple, please get your stuff
together."  This kind of lack of communication and cooperation is
something I would never expect to see in a Japanese company. 

Oh.  My original question was going to concern this:

> WriteNow 1.x can be usable, if you're really careful.  I anxiously await

What do you mean by really careful?  I am a novice, but when I tried
WriteNow, I was able to enter Kanzi, but any time I tried to correct a
mistake, I got garbage.  Is there a way around this?
