Recommended to use the English 5600 software 
with the SL-C7x0 when transfering files via USB. 
Especially when the SL-C7x0 first arrives in Japanese 
and you need to get Terminal onto it...

- By RP

(p.s. I'll be making a guide on how to load the "terminal application" asap)
I gave up on making this as it's detailed on a review site: 
here
you're better off using the English 5600 software 
and it'll be smoother sailing.

I have a better way to have English on C700.

It (this previous link to a conversion to English by Dave) 
works on my B500, but there is one bad point : hancomWord is then mojibake.

Here is the solution :

Simple do this: 
- open the terminal (the one with the look of a PDA, with yellow background) 
- you should now have a prompt of "bash-2.05$" 
- type "su" to enter superuser mode 
- type "cd /home/root/Settings" 
- type "vi locale.conf" 
- type "i" 
- change the line to "Language = en" 
- press the "Cancel" key 
- type ":wq" 
- Press the "Q" icon at the lower left corner 
- select "Reboot" and select "Yes" 
- Bingo! You now have a English version of C700 !
