Seaching In Chinese

[Channy]

Simple question: can you search in chinese on the nw-a1000? as i've seen that you can search in japanese on the a1000.

Thanks

Quick answer: No you can't. Chinese artist/album/song titles will be found under the "other" category.

ConnectPlayer/SonicStage can sort Japanese Kanji by the way they're pronounced. Whereas an iPod will arrange Japanese artists by the Unicode order of the first character, a Japanese A-series will sort them by the way they're read in Japanese, by A-I-U-E-O order.

This is enabled by software (Sony bought this from JustSystem), so I don't know if it works on A-series when you use it on non-Japanese Windows. And I don't think there is a way to do the same for Chinese.
