Hi folks,

I'm hoping international users of Barry can help me out.

I'm trying to determine if modern Blackberries, and especially any
devices outside North America, have the ability to use custom charsets.

So far, it appears consistent that the Blackberry uses CP1252,
a.k.a. WINDOWS-1252, which is like ISO-8859-1, except that characters
0x80 to 0x9F are used as characters instead of escape codes.

This means that if you enter the euro sign in a contact's name, and run
btool -d "Address Book", it should come out as character 0x80.  Use less
or hexdump to confirm.

        btool -d "Address Book" | less

If anyone sees something other than character 0x80 for the euro sign,
please let me know.  Also, if there are settings in your device that
allow for other character sets, please also let me know.

Thanks!
- Chris
