I'm not sure that that applies to minority languages. I'm currently exploring the hypothesis that there is very little in the way of Northern Khmer on the web in the Thai script because input methods or rendering prevent or penalise (e.g. by dotted circles) its use. I am therefore interested in how compatible it is with mobile phones. Chatting with family and childhood friends is one place where using one's mother tongue might make good sense. Richard.
