My keyboard in conjunction with the operating system (US English keyboard on a Windows XP system) allows me to type characters from any language. I haven't learned how to type these all quickly but I can get through a session of testing Japanese input by myself. Its a matter of turning on different keyboard layouts through the "Text Services and Input Languages" control panel. Then there are small windows called Input Method Editors that provide a mapping from your input to the target language. Other platforms provide similar services.
