RIM, We Need Native Chinese Input on PlayBook!!!

**River.Frost** · 02-09-2012, 08:16 PM

Hi All,

I am a native Chinese, so allow me for any spelling or grammar mistake.
Very exciting for received my 32GB PB. its a very long story for purchasing a perfect Playbook, how long? long enough for you don't want to hear.Now i finally got one with me from BestBuy.Perfect!

Perfect? maybe...Not! at least not for Chinese.
We need a native Chinese input.

All Blackberry smartphone have the Chinese input embedded. every model no matter new or old.even ancient model. don't really under stand why Playbook missed it. Need the answer for all China user. more then 20k playbook user from what i heard.

China is a fast developing Country, A 1.3billion population. Apple easily sold 15million IPAD 1 till Mar-4-2011 here. now the number for PB is around 20K, Can't you figure out what a great potential market there.
If there is an issue on playbook sale for RIM? send them all to China, 1.5million PB(the original produced number) is a very small number.

We have numbers of Blogs, forums for discussing Blackberry & Playbook, thousands of post about Playbook by daily. What i am telling you is people loves RIM products.

But this market easily given up by RIM totally. till today, we are not able to buy a single PB via a normal channel. there is no official distributor, no official retailer, no official store for PB. also in the forum, most compliant from the fans are 'no Chinese input, gonna sold it';'won't buy it until native Chinese input';'its not a good time for buying PB for not support our language'.

Be aware, we would love to see succeed on RIM.

So i am urging strongly, RIM to pick up this market immediately, start with a small update for adding Chinese input.

我们需要中文输入！！！

Will we win?

Make PB multi cultural. I vote for that.

**aha** · 02-09-2012, 09:06 PM

oh yeah, I have been mentioning eastern asian language support on every chance i got... you know, eastern asian language support... and Germany too... seriously, RIM?

This matter has been discussed since the first days of PB.
Indeed, there is not only a need for a Chinese character set but also Thai, Korean, Viet, Japanese ...

Relax ... RIM works at their own pace. These too will come, if not with PB OS2 but certainly with release of the BB10 phones later in the year

**msvb** · 02-09-2012, 09:11 PM

Support. Even the blackberry comes with chinese input. It's not that hard to add it on playbook.

I know, but it's really easy money though... huge market with no negative press dissing every decision you make... people saves there too so lots of disposable cash at hand waiting to be taken with a kick product like PB. Unlike BB phones which China lacks a strong platform due to regulation reason, PB is totally no strings attached product that can be sold today right now... RIM, are you listening?

I am so glad to hear that. Thanks for your info!
