I would prefer a number row, but I don't see the lack of it as a downside of the product. Many portable devices (i.e. cellphones) also don't have a number row.

I would like them to print the numbers on the top row keys though.

Amazon is a US website. If someone buys from them, they sure know at least basic English. And also, most of the books are in English, so if you buy a Kindle you will probably do your reading in English also.

So I don't see the need to translate the software right now, because that would involve a lot more people, a lot more time to release updates, and it would probably add to the overall cost of the device.

I'm also an international user, and English isn't my native language. But I do prefer using good software in English than poorly translated versions, which is probably the case for around 95% of existing software, even for big companies like Microsoft and Oracle.
