Typing Japanese is much easier than writing
since most of the time the IME is selecting appropriate Kanji characters. I am using Google IME for Japanese on Windows 7. At home, I use "Kotoeri" IME that comes with Mac. My Kanji learning is very slow. Hope it will improve in the coming months. My kana reading is also slow (mentally reading letter by letter) although I do not have problem in identifying the sound of the given Kana letter (hiragana/katakana) when I see them. By the way, today is my 42nd day of learning Japanese.
