"nfr" gives me "南方人"

I can confirm. My girlfriends father needed a new phone and he needed a phone with character recognition.

I dont recall seeing any of my friends or colleagues here using this feature.

> first recall the precise pronunciation of the word (the -n vs -ng for example)

I am a foreigner living in China and this was never an issue for me, so I doubt the native people here find that a problem.

I rarely see any Chinese people use the handwriting character recognition on their phones. I use it sometimes just for practice, but just writing pinyin is much faster.

Sounds really interesting. Anyone have an invite, they would like to share?

Exactly how I feel about living in China also.

I went to Rescator mentioned in the article and noticed they are using ICQ for contact..

Anyone know why?? Seems like an odd choice.

Meh.. Cool story and all, but Beijing isn't really that bad. Nobody wants to see a picture of a clear sky and yeah, the picture is real. but you will see something like this very rarely.

As a kid growing up in Europe, I remember pollution and acid rain and whatnot being a hot topic on the news every night. Its okay today, but it took time and it will take time in China also, but the government there is doing something about it for sure.
