If anyone knows, of course.
1. Russian is added as menu language.
2. Cyrillic texts are hyphenated by default.
3. Texts in other languages are not hyphenated.

Texts are hypenated? Now I am jealous...
And, can you choose not to have them hypenated if you so like?

No, you can't.
Hyphenation is good for Russian with its long words. Would be nice to have hyphenation for German but maybe German users didn't bug lab126 enough while Russians did

Hypenation is good for everyone!!!
And, I'm constantly bugging Amazon for that (they usually answers my request has been passed to the developers)... no luck so far...
I'm surprised they fear Russians more than they fear Italians...

Not for me. I'm all for it being an option for those who like it, but I think it's horrible.

Yeah, wrong pronoun: I actually meant "for every language".
Regarding tastes, it actually depends on how much you are tied to proper typesetting rules I guess.
I also am for having it as an option
