The most recent Nspire OSes have Chinese characters.  That's one of the reasons why the OSes are so huge. ;D

jhgenius01, etc...

But I'm pretty sure it'll be hard to add Chinese or anything like that. 50,000+ characters? And in 4x6 font ;D

EDIT: 13375P34K!

So basically, Chinese is out considering the huge number of characters.  How many different combinations of 4x6 sprites could you even have? Is it enough to get 13375P34K.  Wait, does that have a P in it? Oh, it starts with 1337. What?

Either way, lot's of characters.

Wut? O.o

Anyway yeah Chinese would be too large. See how large is the Nspire Chinese portion of the OS. I think Goplat said something like 800 KB.

I've seen a screenie of TI NSpire chinese, it's hard to input symbols and it's not very useful because of the keyboard.

Besides being too large, i's not very important due to the lack of chinese users in modern ocidental technology
