Adding CangJie, Quick & Stroke input methods to Windows Phone 7.5
The Issue
We are a group of current and potential Windows Phone users who use Traditional Chinese characters input day-in and day-out. Despite the fact that Windows Phone 7.5 has built-in Handwriting and Bopomofo input method, it is not enough for users around the world. The Handwriting input method is not fast enough for inputting large amount of Traditional Chinese characters. While Bopomofo is only used by Taiwanese, Hong Kong & Macau residents using Traditional Chinese as well do not know how to use the Taiwanese Bopomofo input method. Currently on the market, for a smartphone, Cangjie, Quick and Stroke are the three most standard and commonly used Traditional Chinese characters input method. However, none of these three input methods is supported in our Windows Phone 7.5. This reduces the willingness of many of the potential users of Windows Phone 7.5 due to the inconvenience in Traditional Chinese characters input method. Therefore, we would like to request Microsoft for the addition of the abovenamed input methods for Windows Phone 7.5 as soon as possible.
我們是一群每天都使用繁體中文的現役及潛在Windows Phone用家。雖然Windows Phone 7.5已經內建了手寫及注音符號輸入法,但這並不能滿足世界各地使用繁體中文的用户。首先,手寫輸入法無法快速地輸入大量文字。而注音符號輸入法則只適用於台灣地區,同樣使用繁體中文的香港及澳門地區用户根本不懂如何使用。現在於市面上,倉頡、速成及筆劃輸入法為智能手機最常用及標準的繁體中文輸入法。然而,Windows Phone 7.5卻沒有支援當中任何一種輸入法。由於輸入繁體中文的不便,這無疑大大降低大眾使用Windows Phone 7.5的意慾,減少潛在Windows Phone 7.5使用者的數量。因此,我們要求微軟盡快為Windows Phone 7.5加入以上輸入法。
For supporters, please also voice out our request on the Official Feature Suggestions Forum of Microsoft by voting in the corresponding suggestion.
