Hello to everybody!

I just signed in to this forum and browsed through the postings. There's already tons of info and I found several valuable tips, but I miss one or two topics:

How to enhance transcriber text input to be able to comfortably use it for more than one (default) language?
The reason for this is quite simple: I usually use my german OS settings, but frequently want to write english or maybe french emails.
Transcriber does not support text input other than OS default language, so recognition of english text is quite poor and takes a long time to enter without typo.

Any hints?

And then there's something on GPRS and roaming: I just discovered that EG in danmark there's no O2 GPRS roaming partner, but unlike with a T-D1 device, with the O2 XDA I can not use GSM instead, and customer support says it doesn't work because they don't have a roaming partner and that's it. I do not believe them: There must be a way to route the connection through GSM networks to OS germany.
The default GPRS settings provided by O2 were a bit unstable even at home, but I found better settings which now work quite reliably. I think there may be GSM settings O2 did not provide for whatever reason, but which will nevertheless work. Am I wrong?
