How can I flash back to original US English version after I flashed N97 into Chinese?

Being very disappointed with the fact that I couldn't read Chinese eBooks on N97, I finally flashed it into Chinese (Hongkong) version. Now how can I flash back? The major problem is that I cannot find the original software. Thanks for any help!

Once upgraded / changed it should not be downgraded. The phone can get "bricked"
My latest addition Nokia 701
SW version 112.010.1404 FP 1

Nokia should come out with a solution similar to Mac OS X where one can easily choose different language... I'm not hacking or whatsoever, just want Chinese compatibility!

Thanks Super_slam, that's what I am thinking and I should give it a try.
