 Chinese Input
Well some of the leaked OS are multi-language, some aren't. I tried .85 and it had Chinese Input. For those that know what I'm talking about, 拼音 input was flawless, but works only for simplified Chinese. ㄅㄆㄇㄈ（注音）input worked for traditional characters but the keyboard is buggy. As there are more phonetic symbols than there are keys, you have to press shift to view a second layer of keys. That's fine, but the problem is the second layer is permanently superimposed on the normal keyboard layout and thus you pretty much can't read the keys and need to memorize where everything is. (Try to imagine a keyboard having lowercase and capital letters written directly on top of each other)
Perhaps this is fixed in one of the newer leaks, but I haven't had time to test each one out yet. I'll post back here with which ones have Chinese input and how it works as I slowly work my way up the list.
Thanks to the original poster!
