The following is the E-mail received recently from China,
I am very glad to know more and more people realized the problem. More systems are now developed for the benifit of Chinese.
We need put majority of learnt Chinese on computer ASAP.
A simple n easy-to-operate 10-keypad
and
the you-know-input-code-when-seeing-character
CHINESE INPUT SYSTEM
is the quickest n best approach to reach this goal.

Keyboard cracks Chinese characters
Chinese characters pose a problem for keyboard users
Learning to type Chinese characters using an English keyboard can take months,
but now a more efficient way of typing the characters onto a computer has been
developed.
It is much faster to learn and could be used in all kinds of electronic
equipment,
says its inventor
Wang Songping.

Fewer than
five percent
of Chinese households own a personal computer,
partly because it takes so long to learn how to use
an English keyboard.
Shirong Chen of BBC News Online's Chinese service says he knows these problems
well.
"In general use,
there are around 3,000 Chinese characters
but educated
people could easily use 6,000."
"There are a lot of input methods around and every time a new one comes along it
claims to be the best. This one seems better than most, but only time will
tell."
Number keys* are key
One difficulty might be trying to remember all the different numerical codes.
"Basically, the keyboard is foreign to Chinese," says Mr Shirong.
* another invention in USA, 10-key GeoStroke in 1993.
GeoStroke in simplified Chinese
Mr Wang's new method is based on number keys instead of letters, and it takes
just three or four number keys to type a Chinese character or phrase.
Mr Wang, talking to the Chinese news agency Xinhua, said: "It takes only half an
hour for people to learn to write Chinese characters electronically this way."
He said he hopes this will make personal computers more user-friendly for people
in China, and encourage more people to buy one.
Mr Wang's number-based technique has also been used to create a new
micro-chip
which enables mobile phones to display short Chinese phrases on their screens.
This is expected to be marketed by the end of this year.
It is thought the new technique could also be used in other electronic
equipment, like CD players and electronic notebooks.
