Japanese Keyboard

[Nvr]

Pretty sure you can't type in Japanese in any other release other than the Japanese release due to the use of a specific IME (I guess) built by a third party specifically for the Japanese version.

I think that's what I remember reading. Either way, you can't type in Japanese in the English version without using a third party tool.

So even if I do obtain a Japanese keyboard, I will not be able to type Kana or Kanji on FFXI without using a 3rd party program (which is not allowed)?
