Tell them to tell the other side to send in english?

You should be able to do this, but I don't quite know how.  You might 
want to check out the Linux I18n stuff.  There's definitely support 
for Japanese (i.e. Kanji Term, etc.)

> or have it translated on the fly.

I suppose you could automate this by sending everything through 
Babelfish, but that's ugly, slow, and well, often, wrong :)

Well, knowing Japanese would be a good start, otherwise, how will you 
even know it's not displayed correctly ;)

Hey, if we help you with this, any chance of your company taking us 
out for good Sushi somewhere?  That's a mean incentive for some of us :)
