Handwriting recognition in Vista Business 32

My X61 Tablet still hasn't arrived, but should be here in two days or so.

I have therefore already gathered a fair amount of questions although I don't even have it yet. However, one Q pops up daily.

Will the hand writing recognition under Vista B32 ENGLISH work with my slovenian handwriting?! I am really worried that it might not :( Any clues? For instance there are some from Germany here. Do you have English OS and the OS recognizes Deutsch handwriting?

Thanks for your help.

unfortunately the answer is no. It only recognizes EN. I hope I can find some plugins

Add Slovenian to the Keyboards and Languages. That should make it show up as an input language. Start > "region" > Keyboards and Languages tab > Change keyboards > Add button under Installed services > choose your language

I know chinese and english are supported since those are large markets for microsoft.

I've done that long ago. But no help. I guess that's Vista feature that is the same for everyone - only English and Chinese as it seems. Is there anyone here using german version of Vista and it recognizes German? Or Spanish or something...

sorry, i thought you said you wanted to write in german, which is supported, along with other major languages such as english, french, spanish, chinese, japanese, korean, and maybe a few others.
