Actually, I have no problem to display English in any of the languages setting. English is supported in many languages' font. However, Simple and Traditional Chinese use different character codeset, many programs (web browsers)has such ability to auto detect and display Chinese regardless of whether Simple or Traditional Chinese. There's no auto detect even If I use a Chinese "all-in-one" font (combine of simple and traditional Chinese) .

There's a ebook reader call "Hanvon" has such function in their firmware. When set to Traditional Chinese in the setting and open any Chinese files, the books can display in Traditional Chinese regardless if the books format is in Simple Chinese. Since Jinke is a company in China, they should be able to understand the concept of Chinese. This can be done via the firmware updates with some kind of instructions. Perhaps this is easier to say than done.

Just to be clear, Simple Chinese is used in China, and Traditional Chinese is used in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Japanese's Kanji use traditional Chinese too.
