Thanks for the reply! Is the Kindle set up to be more difficult for foreign language hacking, than, say, the Sony Reader? I believe putting Korean characters on the Sony also involves a hack. I'd be content if I thought this is doable and on the way once some talented person sets their mind to it (or alternatively, Amazon could just allow it, which would save some people headaches).. because eventually someone probably will, unless there's some reason the Kindle is particularly difficult to hack compared to the Sony.
