MurphyTalk is a simplified Chinese input method.
Hope it helps!

On an slightly unrelated topic, I see you have a 5500. Do you know if there re any native (simplified) Chinese ROMS for the 5500?
-
I believe there is no native Chinese distribution for 5500. While there is a native Chinese version 5600 and 7500, but neither is available for public.
I wonder what your mean regarding native?By installing only Chinese font, it can support Chinese pretty well.

I will wait for some bug fixes and then release the source code.

My wifes cousin is at uni and wanted a PDA but his english is not so good. (better than my putonhua though ;0) wo shi waiguoren) so I thought I would send him my Z5500 with a Chinese native ROM so he could play. Im guessing that there's more work involved changing all the application text to chinese than translating a few files.

I remembered on Zaurus Software Index, there is a link to a Taiwan site with native Chinese support, but I wonder it is in simplified Chinese or not.
Another suggestion is to select a SL-7500C in China, it is a $200 less PDA now. But I'm afraid that your wife's cousin will like it or not. Z is a difficult start for a novice.

And Why did not you put it on sf.net ?
-
It seems that my local modification is a different from what the current cvs version. If have time, I will try to merge to CVS.
