Couple of years ago I was writing Motorola's WAP Style Guides and I remember this kind of problem being a constant headache for international developments. It was very difficult then to identify exactly where the scrambling occurred, although this Sun developer note (even though it's not directly relevant to your problem) gives a good impression of the kind of problems that can occur:

I'd say if Enfour have a working solution then it's worth paying for, because getting non-standard characters through servers can be a nightmare in some environments....
