this may be related to the same issues that make netflix suck so bad in canada.
really outdated distribution models are still in place that place geographical limitations on who can distribute what and where they can distribute it. of course the internet made this obvious and ridiculous - how many times have canadians clicked on a video embedded on a web page only to be told you can't view it in your area??
IT'S THE FREAKING INTERNET! IT'S EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME!!!!
anyway - i'm willing to bet this has somethign to do with amazon not having the distribution rights to the new magazines and videos that are now part of the device. fine - disable that for now for canada but let me get the tablet and use the other features!!!
it's 2011 after all... time distributers woke up and stopped desperately trying to control the means of distribution. it's over folks - distribution of digital content is forever global!
ugh.
