I just got my hands on KDIC with a japanese -> english and english -> japanese dictionary, but my nx can't read the hiragana/katakana/kanji. It just displays wingdings. Does anyone know where i could download a program that would enable me to view it like normal?

You need to install a Japanese OS in order to read the Japanese characters. I don't personally know any that would work on a NX but you can try CJKOS from zzTechs (http://www.zztechs.com/en/cjkos/index.php4).

Thanks, but it still doesnt seem to work, i installed it along with the font files and set them as enabled, but when i go into KDIC, it still gives me the wingdings. I think it's probably a problem in OS5.

Another Japanese input app: MessagEase KB replacement

Maybe it's the problem in OS5......
I never use OS5 before.
These software never update since CJKOS showed up!
So, I suggest you to try CJKOS.
If you really need to use Japanese Input, I personally recommend you to change your CLIE to a Japanese model. The font in Japanese model is much more beautiful than in CJKOS and the Japanese input is just perfect!! ;)
