I have a second generation Kindle and it can't open any of the Japanese language books in my Amazon account.
Yes, but...that was kind of my point. Amazon won't preclude folks from buying those, any more than they stop people with DXes or K2s from buying books in Cyrillic, which work about the same as I'd expect a book in Japanese to work. That's just not how they roll. AT least, not the last time I looked. As Japanese is now a supported language, perhaps they will but if it's not working on your K2...then I question what they mean when they say "supported.' Usually, that means that they've added the Unicode and character sets for the language to work on the KF7s, too.

But, I guess we'll find out when you/your client publishes. It would be good if you could keep us updated on it.
