Sorry if anyone sees this twice.  I made a mistake with the
distribution and didn't realize it until now. :-(

Does any one know just how space the Kanzi fonts take up in the ROM?
(I am assuming they take up the same amount of RAM if I don't have the ROM.
Is this a good assumption?)

 How about word processors marketed in Japan? 

Also, does anyone know if Apple publishes an English version of the Kanzi
Talk manual?  I want to use Japanese on my Mac, but I'm not good
enough to read a manual in Japanese yet. :-(  Anyone done any translations?

Any rumors on when it'll be ready or what will be improved?
