I just returned from yet another trip to Japan - this time with the new AXIM. I pretty much used it daily, if not hourly. I tested it many ways - as did alot of the japanese I was with. Mostly with kanji and slang. All were impressed.
The only thing that happens sometimes is the character autocomplete "goes away" and I need to soft reset. This only happened twice in 3 weeks and is probably related to some button stroke order.
Thus far, I can honestly say - this thing is what you need if you are an English speaker in Japan - or just studying Japanese for that matter.
BUT - in hindsight - i should have bought the Japanese OS instead of the English OS - it would set you in complete Japanese mode and erase a few quirks. You want to get away from english as much as possible when you are learning.

Note from Peter: this is a review of the Complete System with English WM2003SE OS. At the time, I recommended the Japanese over the English for exactly the reasons Mr. Garcia describes. However, the English JLT system now uses the WM6 OS and works perfectly, just as well as the Japanese, without the annoyances and slight instability of the older English WM2003SE system (the OS itself was fine, but there was no way to install Japanese support to it without causing these minor problems; WM6 can use a better Japanese support system that doesn't have these issues).
