Blackberry Phones - Read And Write Thai Too?

[robsamui]

Hi.

I've managed to install Thai fonts on an old Curve 8310 but now have an 8520.

This is now fine with support for the Thai language but I recently saw one with a Thai keyboard. I now have found where I can get a Thai/QWERTY keyboard for an 8520 but does anyone know if the firmware is able to match in with this so it also writes Thai script?

If so - what firmware is needed and where can I download it?

Thanks for your ideas,

Rob

I see a download for the 8320 but no 8310. Can I use the 8310 one? I want to be able to input Thai language from the keyboard. Thanks.
