I'm in the process of developing a site for a Japanese client and they
requested, if possible, that I use the Google Maps API to allow users
to get directions to and from specified locations.

I know directions are now supported via the Google Maps site itself,
but I'm having a bit of trouble getting GDirections.load to work with
Japanese locations. I'm basing my test code of one of Google's
examples which also fails with Japanese addresses.

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/examples/directions-advanced.html

In Japanese:
From: 渋谷駅
To: 東京駅

In English:
From: Shibuya Station
To: Tokyou Station

If I type in the locations above in English or Japanese I get error
602 no corresponding geographic location.  Is there something missing
from this example or is the API lagging behind the Google Maps site in
regards to data?
