Yes, and no: this is happening in the german version as well.
Actually, the "Rate this book" String isn't even appearing anywhere in the framework sources, so it might be an image instead.
As for the title not being translated, it's even weirder. It seems like the text is being taken from the application registry, instead of the resource bundle:
Code:
~/kindle-touch/sqlite$ LANG=C grep -r "Before you go" .
./prereg.sql:INSERT INTO "properties" VALUES('com.lab126.EndActions','displayName','Before you go...');
Binary file ./prereg.db matches
./appreg.sql:INSERT INTO "properties" VALUES('com.lab126.EndActions','displayName','Before you go...');
Binary file ./appreg.db matches
So I guess we just have to live with it.
