Japanese Rh10?

[Dabitt]

Hi there, i've tried scouring the forums for this but I just can't seem to find an exact answer. From what I understand the North American Rh10 is different from the Japanese Rh10. Other than the remote, what other difference am I looking at and is it really worth my whilte to import a japanese model? Thx for your time and sorry if this is a repeat question.

Welcome to MDCF!

The Japanese and N. American RH10 is essentially identical. Significant differences that I can think of now include:

1) Japanese RH10 has the RM-MC35ELK matching color remote vs. N. American RH10 with non-LCD remote.

2) Japanese RH10 has the charging cradle vs. no such cradle for the N. American RH10

3) Japanese RH10 obviously supports Japanese/Chinese characters vs. no Asian language support for the N. American RH10. * However, you can change the destination settings of the N. American RH10 to attain Asian language support. Run a search within the forum for instructions.

4) Japanese RH10 comes in four color scheme: Silver, Black, Blue and Orange. vs. N. American RH10 only comes in Black color.

* For detail pictures of the charging cradle, please review the blue RH10 pictorial I have created by the Product Reviews/Pictorials section of the forum.
