That's what I was thinking about. I guess you (Canadians) would have to face a choice, either to have Sony Reader with English interface only right now, or wait indefinite period of time until Sony duplicates its English support for the reader to French, or maybe never bother with it and overlook Canada all together.
If I were a French Canadian, I would choose to have the reader right now with English interface and do not complain too loudly...because right now it is not about nationality negligence but pure business/money.

...let alone there are no books in French in Sony ebook store. Are there DRMed books in French in lit or mobi formats?


P.S. please noticed, although I do live in the UK, it is only for the last 5 years and my first/second languages are Russian/Hebrew.
