@Mark Weber. I can’t see any reason why using stickers would be any harder then using a Japanese keyboard. It’s just little bits of paper with the kana written on them stuck on to my keyboard with white tack.
@KiaiFighter. I think I get what you mean about the mobiles, sounds like the Japanese equivalent of how people text in English.
I thought everyone would say that they type romaji style. I guess if everyone one does it there’s no reason I shouldn’t. I still think id prefer doing it the other way though, buy that does mean it takes me ages to type anything.
